Khajuraho in a day — Western temples + light & sound

Morning

Western Group of Temples (the main Khajuraho site, UNESCO) by 8am before heat + crowds. ₹40 Indians / ₹600 foreigners (includes audio guide in English/French/German/Japanese). Core temples: Kandariya Mahadeva (31m, largest, 872 figures), Lakshmana Temple (930 AD, oldest of the Western group), Vishwanath, Devi Jagadamba, Chitragupta. 3 hours minimum. Famous for mithuna (erotic) sculptures — but these are only 10% of the total; the rest depict gods, warriors, musicians, dancers, mothers.

Midday

Eastern Group of Temples (2km east) — Jain temples (Parsvanath, Adinath, Shantinath) + some Hindu. Smaller, less crowded, equally detailed. Free entry. 90 min. Lunch at Raja Cafe (near Western gate, institution since 1970s, mid-range Indian-Continental) or Mediterraneo (for pizza cravings).

Afternoon

Southern Group of Temples (Duladeo + Chaturbhuj) — further south, 3km from main group. Require transport. Quieter, architecturally simpler, good for 45 min visit. Archaeological Museum at Western group entrance (closed Fridays, ₹25) for sculpture fragments + interpretation.

Evening

Light & Sound Show at Western Group (7pm Hindi / 7:45pm English, 50 min, ₹250) — Amitabh Bachchan narrates the Chandela dynasty history with the temples lit. Surprisingly good production. Dinner at Raja Cafe or your hotel.

Khajuraho summer (Apr–Jun) is brutal (45°C+); visits limited to 6–10am + post 5pm. Monsoon (Jul–Sep) brings short showers — temples are open-air. Winter (Nov–Feb) is perfect. Indoor fallback: Archaeological Museum, Tribal & Folk Art Museum, hotel pool afternoons.
