Ed and Chris visit a temple in Deshnoke, India, filled with 20,000 rats!

Ed Petrie and his friends find the most unusual places in Asia. Ed and Chris visit a temple in Deshnoke, India, filled with 20,000 rats!

Ed and Chris visit a temple filled with 20,000 rats! It is dedicated to the Hindu rat goddess Karni Mata, and the rats that live here are believed to be reincarnations of her followers. These rats are everywhere you look in the temple, including on the feet of our presenters. It is considered an especially great fortune to see a white rat, which is believed to be a reincarnation of the goddess herself. So will Ed or Chris spot her?

Ed and Naomi take a ride on an amazing escalator on the side of a Chinese mountain. It is one of the longest outside escalators in the world and is designed to look like a dragon. It takes you all the way up to Dragon Gorge, where Ed and Naomi finish their day with an epic boat ride, but the highlight of the day is still that dragon escalator!

Ed and Michelle kick it to the wickets for this pastiche of the Run DMC and Aerosmith classic Walk This Way, all about the game of cricket! They dance, sing, bowl, bat, catch in the streets with locals and play at the SCC Sinhalese Cricket Club in Colombo. They also celebrate the achievements of famous Sri Lankan bowler Muttiah Muralitharan and even take a tea break at a local cricket cafe.

Ed and Iain won't go hungry or thirsty in the desert when they visit a Bedouin camp - they are famous for their hospitality and fantastic food! So what will feared French food critic Rene Mangetout make of Iain's attempt at Bedouin bread?
 
Ed and Cel are in for a load of belly laughs at the Belly Button Festival in Furano, Japan. They take part in the Annual Belly Button Dance, but must get their bodies painted with faces and put on their costumes before joining their teams.
