1. Khajuraho Temples

Magnificent temples built between 950 A.D. and 1050 A.D.
Reviewed By rambabuyarlagadda - Lafayette, United States
These temples especially the ones in the western group of temples are well preserved and are wonderful examples of the best temple architecture. One thing that is really unique in Khajuraho is that daily life in contemporary time is depicted beautifully in sculptures on the walls. Gives the best historical evidence of how liberated and equal partners women were to men in the Sanatana Dharma culture prior to Islamic invasions. One has to get over the superficial view of eroticism to get to the real meaning behind the sculptures and get the concept of transforming sexual energy into spiritual energy. A good guide with a spiritual understanding of the temple sculptures would be very helpful.

Its and amazing experience to visit M P Tribal Musium. I interacted with the batch of Manipur and Naga Tribes. Saw their Art, Dance and the way they mingle with common people. They are very loving in nature and were overwhelmed visiting Bhopal. Surely visit the Musium. The M P Government has created a platform for remotest tribes to showcase their talent. Excellent indeed!

This is a pretty large museum with several galleries. It is simply overwhelming to visit all the galleries in one single day. Therefore plan to spend 2-3 hours daily for 3-4 days to see all the exhibits in detail. There is a small entry fee and small fee for taking photographs. There is also a small souvenir shop on the campus.

The entry ticket of the exhibition on various tribal culture is Rs.50 per person. There is lot of parking place inside the premises and the exhibition is spread over a large area. The place has a canteen, a central museum & a big auditorium. Here houses of various tribal cultures have been replicated including some handicrafts too. The whole activity may take approx 2 hours since a lot of walking is involved. It's recommended to park your vehicle next to the central museum. A must visit for children.
