City Information
Khajuraho is a popular tourist destination and an acclaimed world heritage site for its unique temple art, exotic tableaux and sculptures preserved at the Western, Eastern and Southern Temple groups. The adjoining Archeological Museum is worth a visit for its collection of sculptures, inscriptions, and architectural objects.
At a distance of sixty-four km is the Dhubela Museum famous for the Shakti Cult Sculpture. Closer at seven kilometer from Khajuraho is the picnic spot of Benisagar Lake that is ideal for boating and angling. The Pandava and Ranch waterfalls are other scenic spots worth visiting on your stay at The Grand Temple View Khajuraho.
The annual Khajuraho Dance Festival celebrated in the months of February/March with performances by the Indian classical dancers against the backdrop of Khajuraho Temples is a true feast for the eyes and the soul. The festival of Mahashivratri is worth more than a reluctant participation at Khajuraho. Local handicrafts, silver goods and brassware make for good souvenirs, reminders of your tour to Khajuraho. |
