KHAJURAHO
Khajuraho, so called because it was a large garden of palm trees. Khajuraho from Kjirwahila named.
But this in itself is a wonderful thing that no one comes to the palm. Visitors come to see the temple.
Indian temples of Khajuraho place is unique in architecture and crafts. Two reasons: either they are
unmatched in terms of craft, the other hand on them are crafted figures of men and women in love,
her example and elsewhere in the world do not. That is why the UNESCO World Heritage Khajuraho
has the rank. Most foreign tourists coming to India will definitely want to come to Khajuraho. For the
Indians a thousand years ago, the history of these temples are documented.
Chandela dynasty built by the kings of the building
Khajuraho temples were built by the rulers of Chandela dynasty. Also interesting is the story behind
their creation. It is said that there was a Brahmin woman named HN. One night when he was bathing
the moon in Rati became fascinated him. Watched and loved both the culmination of a Godhead
woman born in that union. Binbyahi mother had heard the taunts over time due to HN. He left home
and took refuge in the nearby forests of Khajuraho. That raised her son. She was the mother of his
son and master. The same son went Chandrawarmn Chandela dynasty founded by name. Being the
son of the moon called the king Chandravanshi.
When Chandrawarmn been installed as King to fulfill the dream of his mother, he built these temples.
To fulfill your desires of the society was degraded HN wanted the temple to make the work of the
man who wishes to be exposed. By doing so, he underlined the realization of the emptiness of human
desires wanted to. These temples were built so Chandrawarmn initially but later rulers were
completed. Engaged in the construction of temples almost a hundred years, from the year 950 AD to
1050 AD. At that time the construction of the 85 temples was built by the Chandela kings. Time-
saving, avoid erosion and history appears now only 22 of them. But in 22 fully and reduce the
number of temples intact. Chandrawarmn for the construction of temples in Khajuraho on why will not get any convincing reason in history.
Khajuraho is currently extremely small town and must be no larger than a village a thousand years
ago. Values are: Chandel King wanted to make it back to religion and knowledge. Some people say it
was the Chandel Kings relationship occult power through physical needs were favored to win. But
these two arguments do not have any concrete evidence. A central point is to figure out statues of
female-to which it is present in every form. Common life-cycle of the contemporary society has been
replaced on the temple walls.
Highlights
The highlight of the western group of temples of Khajuraho is the same. Most here are: Kandaria
Mahadev Temple, Lakshmana Temple, Varaha Temple, Chitragupta temple, Vishwanath temple,
Nandi Temple, Mtngeshwar Temple. Chaust Yogini temple complex outside of the Western group is
going a little bit different. But all the sculptures of the temple are missing elf. Mostly destroyed over
time by eliminating the rest placed in museums. Eastern Group is approximately three kilometers to
go in a little village. The contemporary Hindu temple three are: Brahma, Vamana and Javari. Jain
temples Parshvanath, Adinath, Gntai temples. Jain temples were built in later rounds. Gemini
sculptures in Hindu temples are not with the elegance, as are in the Western group. Which is five
kilometers away from the main campus of Southern group Dulhadev and quadrilateral temple. These
temples were built by kings of the last Chandela dynasty in the later rounds. All the temples style,
texture, craft, pavilion, are unique, about which detailed information can be found by visiting.
After the thirteenth century, the temple was lost. And dense forests cover around them. Lack of
maintenance and the time of death of many of them were destroyed. British reign here while passing
through a British cavalry officer found them. But restoring temples and to introduce them to the
world again in the latter half of the last century was the whole job.

Because of the fame of Khajuraho sculptures Gemini
Khajuraho is famous worldwide for its Gemini sculptures. The Kama Sutra of Vatsyayana who write
those sculptures inspired. Statues of physical contact between men and women in such a detailed way
on the temple walls off arguably the social life of that time, the outlines. This indicates how much the
society of that time was Kuntarhit. The current round of the society is sure to see the pictures
surreptitiously, notwithstanding the modern society of that time was more backward dared to
decorate the temples of human love. The sex was not a taboo subject, but were a part of normal life.
Sculptures also explains the elements of love Sharirikta we believe the creation of the West, they are
already in our present. This is not only about Khajuraho.
Contemporary India, many places are similar sculptures found in temples. Konark and Puri temple
are examples of this. The remote Chamba (Himachal Pradesh) can be seen in the temples of the idols
of work. Chamba came into existence around the same time when it was established in Khajuraho
Chandela dynasty. Temple of Konark built in the twelfth century, shortly before losing the
anonymity
of Khajuraho. Each location in the plane and Manwakrition was undoubtedly find differences.
Although the reputation gained much Khajuraho sculptures Gemini. The reason that the number of
temples and statues and sculptures made them gestures, sexual sports expansion is much higher. That
is why today when you visited Khajuraho'd like to bring some of the memorable world of written
books on the Kama Sutra and the Gemini images and their clay sculptures, wood, stone, metal
replicas made of the highest big and small are available.
Gemini statues temples also get to hear about a perception that he was a motive. Since that time, the
student celibacy lived in seminaries, so these sculptures were made known to them through the work
which they had prepared for domestic life. Since all the outer walls of the temples Murtian Gemini,
inner Hsse not, so that was also to show that people should Kamvasanaan left out. Whatever the
reasons are, of course, so it is certain that these temples reflect a mature civilization.
