Milking cows, garden tours and henna tattoos were just some of the activities visitors enjoyed at the Hare Krishna temple open day.

Bhaktivedanta Manor in Hillfield Lane, Aldenham held its annual family open day on Saturday.

Around 350 people turned up and got the chance to tour the manor grounds on carts pulled by bulls, try on sarees which they got to keep alongside trying mediation and yoga.

There were also a bouncy castle, face painting and farm visits for children to enjoy as well as a free lunch.

Srutidharma Das, temple president, said: "It was an amazing day and first and foremost the weather held out.

"The open day is a great initiative - it opens the doors to the local community so that they can come and explore what we do here.

"Many families spent the whole day here and had a lot of fun."
