the Taj Mahal, but in rose coloured sandstone. Old fort museum and Mandore
Gardens.
KHAJURAHO
Khajuraho
- about 200 kms from Jhansi is in a wilderness and not really enroute to
anywhere or from anywhere, you should not miss the beautiful, ornate
temples built by the chandelas in the 10th and 11th centuries. The temples
have survived precisely because of their isolation at a site where there
is neither a town or an industry. The Chandelas ruled for five centuries
and the 85 Khajuraho temples out of which only 22 have survived were the
outpourings of their creative genius over a hundred years period.The
temples were constructed from 950 AD to 1050 AD and are in three distinct
groups. These temples have been designed and carved to lead the eyes from
ground level upward till you seem to be looking at heaven. The world at
large identifies the Khajuraho temples as sensuous and erotic sculptures.
But they are more than just that, Life in every mood has been captured in
stone, testifying not only to the craftman's artistry but also to the
extraordinary breadth of vision of the Chandela Rajputs.
