Adorned with exquisite sculpture, only 22 temples remain of the original 85 Khajuraho’s temples are covered with hundreds of sculptured figures. The most famous are the Kandariya Mahadev, the Chaturbhuj, the Paraswanath and the Ghantai - the summit of Hindu sculpture: voluptuous forms; human and divine, throbbing with life and sublime in expression.
