Kandariya
Mahadeo:
The largest, most typical Khajuraho temple, it soars 31 m high. Dedicated to
shiva, the sanctum sanctorum enshrines a lingam. The main shrine is exquisitely
carved and features, in delicate detail, gods, goddesses, celestial maidens
and lovers. Particularly noteworthy are the entrance arch, the ceilings and
pillars of the interior compartments.
Chaunsat
Yogini:
The only granite temple and the earliest surviving shrine of the group (900
A.D.), it is dedicated to Kali. Only 35 of the orginal 65 shrines remain.
Another Kali temple (originally dedicated to Vishnu) is the Devi Jagdambe
Temple.
Chitragupta
Temple:
A three- headed image of Brahma is enshrined in this temple. The approach
is equally impressive, with lions flanking the northern and elephants the
southern steps that lead up to it. A Nandi bull faces the shrine.
Lakshamana
Temple:
The lintel over the entrance of this beautiful Vaishnavite temple shows the
trinity of Brahma, Vishnu and Shiva with Lakshmi, Vishnu's idol of Vishnu's
incarnations, Narasimha and Varaha. This boar incarnation also appears in
a nine-feet high statue at the Varaha Temple.
Matangeswara
Temple:
Still a living place of worship, the temple is dedicated to shiva, has an
eight feet high lingam, and is outside the precincts of the Western Group.
