Tours to Khajuraho

Tour to Khajuraho

Known as the Temple city of India, Khajuraho is world famous for its intricately carved, beautiful temples in stone. A symbol of India's glorious past, heritage and culture, the temples symbolize an immortal saga of Hindu art and culture.

Situated south east of Delhi, modern day Khajuraho was a large city of the Chandelas in the ancient age. Legend has it that Hemvati, the daughter of Hemraj, the Royal priest of Kashi, got a son from the Moon God, who came to be known as Chandravarman and became the King of Khajuraho.

Khajuraho was considered to be a seat of religion and learning by the Chandelas and hence this place is the guardian of some of the most exotic temples in the whole of India. Among the 85 original ones only 22 have survived the ravages of time.
