Surely you want to add some local colour to your run?

I have been to Budakeling Village. It is really a village of blacksmiths making simple tools for farmers.

I had a discussion with a local Hindu who denied claims in the guidebooks that this village is a Buddhist Village. According to him there are several varieties of Hinduism. Most Hindus follow the Shivaite tradition. However, the people of Budakeling Village follow a different tradition of Hinduism.

The Buda part of the name of the village has nothing to do with Buddhism.
