Khajuraho temples: The Mystic and the Provocative

Adventure to India

India is a diverse multiethnic, multilinguistic, and multiultural country, which makes it the perfect destination for the adventurous traveller. Take a daring ride on a hot air balloon in Agra, join an expedition climbing the mighty Himalayas, take a trip deep in the jungles of India, and spot a glorious Royal Bengal tiger in its natural habitat.

Visit the Kahjuraho temples

One remains flummoxed by the enigmatic temples of the Khajuraho temples standing tall in the state of Madhya Pradesh. There is no other monument that leaves one spellbound like these magnificent landmarks, displaying stone-carved erotic sculptures that celebrate the inborn stages of life. The temples were built by the Chandela Dynasty between 950 and 1050, and are devoted to the religions of Hinduism, Buddhism, and Jainism representing a cultural period of liberal attitude.  They are considered a masterwork in Indian art and architecture and is designated a UNESCO World Heritage site.

Travel Tips

It is possible to travel to Madhya Pradesh by airplane, train, or taxi; but the true spirit of India can be found on the train. Khajuraho is a relatively safe place to travel but be aware of your surroundings and alert of scammers. Women travelling alone should dress in long pants and be cautious when travelling at night.
