KHAJURAHO TEMPLES : A UNESCO world heritage site (Photo Book)

A UNESCO world heritage site in the state of Madhya Pradesh, India, Khajuraho is a famous tourist and archaeological site known for its sculptured temples dedicated to Shiva, Vishnu, and Jain patriarchs. Of the 85 original temples-most constructed of hard river sandstone-about 22 are still reasonably well preserved. The temples are generally divided into three groups: Western, Eastern and Northern. The Eastern group mainly consisting of Jain temples. It is wrongly believed that Khajuraho temples are filled with erotic sculpture. Erotic scenes represent a relatively small part of the carvings, but sensuous eroticism prevails in all the sculptures.
