Vamana Temple

TIME : 2016/2/17 13:16:13

Vamana Temple (1050–75), 200m further north of Javari Temple, is dedicated to the dwarf incarnation of Vishnu. It has quirky touches such as elephants protruding from the walls, but its sikhara is devoid of subsidiary spires and there are few erotic scenes. Its roofed mahamandapa (main hall) is an anomaly in Khajuraho but typical among medieval west Indian temples.
