World Heritage - An incredible place that takes you back in time and shows you the daily life of the people who lived there in the 10th and 12th centuries. Erotic sculptures and bas-reliefs offer insight into sexual life in ancient India.

Western Group of Temples - The sculptures and the patterns of statues designed on the walls of different temples are just unique from each other and sometimes highly erotic..Overall it was enjoyable..
