Day 13: Arrived in Khajuraho the night before. Woke up early for a trip to the Khajuraho temples. They are Hindu temples, built between 950 AD and 1050 AD. Of the 85 original temples, 25 still exist. They are covered in intricate carvings and are architecturally incredible. We finished our morning with a tour of another Hindu temple of the same style, roughly 2km away and explored a nearby Jain temple. Tours were followed by lunch at a small cafe, overlooking many of the temples. We all tried Indian french toast for the first time. Imagine, sweeter batter and deep fried, so the moisture stays in the bread. Incredible! We had the afternoon free to shop and explore the town.
