Transfer by road to Khajuraho .Visit the temples in Khajurahou. Its temples depict aspects of Indian life a thousand years ago during the Chandela period. After the Taj it is the most frequently visited monument in India. Khajuraho is a unique example of indo-aryan architecture. The Chandela rulers between 950-1050 built these temples. There were 85 temples, which were built, and only 22 of them survive today. Unlike other temples Khajuraho temples are said to have a theme (women), which comes in front while going through the temples. A celebration of woman kind, her myriad moods and facets. There are carvings of a woman writing letter, applying makeup to her eyes, combing her tresses, dancing, and playing with her child. Innocent, coquettish, smiling, seductive, passionate and beautiful, all depicted in intricate detail, sharply etched, sculpted with consummate skill. One opinion says Chandelas were followers of the tantric cult, which believes that gratification of earthly desires is a step towards attaining the infinite liberation, nirvana. For many centuries these temples were concealed in the dense jungles to be discovered by captain T.S. Burt in 1838.
