    You could also try the north east corner of the courtyard a few minutes before sunrise. The sun will rise just over the dome, casting a gentle back light on the carved panels while the courtyard stays empty. From that spot you can get a clean view of the gold leaf without the glare that appears later, and the angle gives a nice depth with the stone pillars in front. If you’re staying at the Lemon Tree Hotel Rajkot, the walk from the parking to that corner takes about five minutes.
