Road to Rajasthan

             Day 5

             A leisurely start to the day with a 0930 departure from our hotel to the airport for a 1200 flight to Khajuraho via Agar.

             We then went to lunch at a small family run restaurant.

              Then it was onto the Khajuraho a small village know for its UNESCO World Heritage listed sculptured temples dedicated 

               to Shiva Vishnu and Jain religions.

               The Khajuraho Temples were built by the Chandella rulers between AD 900 and 1300 and are scattered over 23 km sq.

               Originally a group of 85, they are the largest group of Hindu and Jain temples in the world, although only 25 of them remain today.

              We toured the western group of temples the most important is the Kandariya Mahadevo Temple dedicated to Lord Shiva.

              We also see the Varanasi Temple dedicated to the Vamana or dwarf incarnation of Lord Vishnu as well as the Javari Temple.

               Then later in the evening we enjoyed a cultural dance performance.
