Built between 950 and 1050 CE, during the Chandela Dynasty, the architecture here is incredible. First, visit the Eastern Group of Temples, which are split between those dedicated to Hindu gods and goddesses and those dedicated to the Jain gods. While the group of temples in the west is better known, this group is well worth a visit. Sculptures here depict everyday life rather than sensual subjects. Later, visit the western group of Temples, which are the best-preserved and well-known in Khajuraho. Lakshmana is the oldest temple of the western group, dating from around 950 CE, and is well preserved, with some erotic carvings.

Some locals may even invite you in for a cup of tea if you’re kind and courteous to them.
