Devi Jagdamba Temple

Location

Devi Jagdambi Temple is famed for its erotic and intensely carved figures. A smaller and delicately balanced temple is bedecked with some of the premium figurines at Khajuraho. The Garbha Griha of this superb shrine houses a huge image of the goddess of the Universe.

The temple also displays a dazzling image of Goddess Parvati, along with the most talked-about image, Mithuna. The intricately carved panels with the images of Lord Vishnu evidences the belief that this pretty shrine is initially started out as a Vishnu temple.

Mesmerizing beauty of the three bands of sculptures around the temple, especially the uppermost band, makes this temple one of the finest shrines in Khajuraho.
