Magnificent temples built between 950 A.D. and 1050 A.D.

These temples especially the ones in the western group of temples are well preserved and are wonderful examples of the best temple architecture. One thing that is really unique in Khajuraho is that daily life in contemporary time is depicted beautifully in sculptures on the walls. Gives the best historical evidence of how liberated and equal partners women were to men in the Sanatana Dharma culture prior to Islamic invasions. One has to get over the superficial view of eroticism to get to the real meaning behind the sculptures and get the concept of transforming sexual energy into spiritual energy. A good guide with a spiritual understanding of the temple sculptures would be very helpful.

Such an amazing experience. The exterior structure of Kandariya Mahadev is based on a main tower (shikhara), the temple's highest point, which symbolizes Mount Kailash, Shiva's Himalayan mountain home. This main tower is surrounded by 84 smaller spires (urushringas). The whole building is made of sandstone, with a granite foundation.

We visited Khajurao a couple of days ago and I was simply blown away by the beauty of the 1000 to 800 year stone temples. This is a UNESCO World Heritage site and is meticulously maintained by the Archeological Survey of India. The exterior and interior carvings are simply stunning and as beautiful as described in guide books. We had a very knowledgeable guide named Sanjay Khare. +919425143587. I'd reccomend a stop over at this amazing place if you have time on an India trip.

Babu, the owner of this company was in touch with us from beginning to end. His response was prompt and professional, above all his behaviour was extremely polite and courteous. The rates quoted by him were honest and fair leaving no room for dissatisfaction. For 3 days he provided us impeccable service for long distance, within city and safari in Panna Tiger reserve. Honestly he has provided one of the finest service we have received accross the country far exceeding our expectations. We wish him all the success in his endeavour.

The Khajuraho Group of Monuments is a group of Hindu temples in Chhatarpur, Madhya Pradesh, India, about 175 km. southeast of Jhansi, 453 km.train distance from Varanasi. They are one of the UNESCO World Heritage Sites in India. The temples are famous for their nagara-style architectural symbolism and their erotic sculptures. Most Khajuraho temples were built between 950 and 1050 by the Chandela dynasty. Historical records note that the Khajuraho temple site had 85 temples by the 12th century, spread over 20 square kilometers Of these, only about 25 temples have survived, spread over 6 sq. km. Of the various surviving temples, the Kandariya Mahadeva Temple is decorated with a profusion of sculptures with intricate details, symbolism and expressiveness of ancient Indian art. The Khajuraho group of temples were built together but were dedicated to two religions, Hinduism and Jainism, suggesting a tradition of acceptance and respect for diverse religious views among Hindus and Jains in the region. The temple architectures were amazing, with remarkable details. They are very beautiful, worth a visit.
