20051224 Khajuraho

Wonderful sculptures and excellent well preserved temples, the highlight is the famous Kama Sutra sculptures. No one really knows the idea of the existence of sex action depicts on these temples. The craftsmanship is superb. The town is really small, but the souvenir shops and hotels surpass the demand of tourists, tense competition. Some are quite aggressive and unfriendly. Also invited to visit schools, I know they would ask for donation eventually. They were not happy when I refused to follow. Who knows that’s the scam? I don’t feel comfortable or relax to be alone, too much hassles.
