A trip to Khajuraho

Few months back, right after our mid sem exams we planned a days trip to Khajuraho. Tp kahjuraho its 5 hours journey here from Kanpur. We hired two cabs and were about 15 people. We atarted our journey at about 5:30 in the morning. It was still dark and foggy. The journey wa snot at all comfortable as the condition of road is terrible.
Khajuraho is a small town in MP famous for its temples. These temples are unique as they have sculptures of Kamasutra which is rare to find any where inthe world. Every year there are thousands of foreingn and Indian tourists coming to see the aesthetic beauty of Kahajuraho. On reaching the place every one was exausted by the long journey. The town itself is in very poor of the conditions, from no standards it can be called an international tourist destination. Every one was regretting the decision to go there.
Last hope was from the temple and it did not disappoint. The monument is more beautiful than we ever thought. The ambience there was so calm and soothing. The lush green lawns and a clear azure sky with a cool breeze took off all the tiredness. But the best part of temples are the sculptures carved on their walls. The sculptures are brilliant and demostrates Indian competence in art and engineering at that time. Eighty four positions of Kamasutra are sculpted on the walls of temple. Each and every corner is full of sculptures dieities, kings, animals. The main temple is called Laxman temple and there are numberof other equaly beautiful ones.
The monument is recently listed in the international heritage monument and is really worthy of it. A better maintenance and a complete makeover of the town is required to give the tourists a good experience.
