Khajuraho Group of Monuments
Brief Description
Built during the Chandella Dynasty, at its height between 950 and 1050, the temples of Khajuraho, of which only about 20 remain and which fall under three distinct groups, belong to two different religions - Brahmanism and Jainism. They strike a perfect balance between architecture and sculpture. The Temple of Kandariya is decorated with a profusion of sculptures that are among the greatest masterpieces of Indian art
