We were only able to spend one day in Khajuraho, but I think it was well worth it. We saw the main group of temples here, or the Western group. There are only 25 temples that remain today, from about 85 that used to exist. These temples were built from about AD 950 to 1050 and they were built in only 100 years. It is amazing to me that all these huge temples were built in such a short amount of time! Even more intriguing is the subject portrayed in all the intricate carvings...Kamasutra! Not surprisingly, there is a definite sexual energy here, but I am glad we didn't miss these unique and intriguing temples!
