The moment someone hears the name Khajuraho the bell it rings in the mind is - statues of sex poses from Kama sutra.
But when I visited this great place what I saw was something significantly different. I have visited many places in India and to my mind this is perhaps the only place where you can see hundreds of beautiful statues in a single temple. Clusters of statues in fact!
I have never seen such beautiful statues of women in so many numbers anywhere in India. This is a collection of several master pieces in one place! Architecture cannot get bigger and more beautiful than this! Not a single square inch is left free in these temples. There are four temples which are the most important ones.
Khajuraho is much more than what it is generally known for!

Gorgeous!
I haven't seen this temple. Hope to make it one day. The statues are wonderful, haven't seen such clusters before.
