Everyone today is attracted to the magnificence of Khajuraho. It is mainly because when people visit this place, they come across a stylish and great depiction of life and its amazing elements. One must know that the Khajuraho group of temples has been declared as a UNESCO World Heritage site. It belongs to both Hindu and Jain religions, and the temples have withstood the ravage of time and even today, they stand still in all their glory. Between 1950 and 1050 AD, the temples were built by Chandela kings. Even today, they leave a lasting impression on visitors with their unique sculptures and statues.
But people generally make the mistake of assuming that these temples just display erotism as there are several depictions of the everyday routine activities of life. One might come across an elephant fighting on the statues, while one might also come across some manifestations of divine beings.
Above all, these temples stand out in the crowd as a pinnacle of art and architecture. Also, people need to visit this amazing place at least once in their lifetime. Panna National Park is nestled in the Chattarpur districts of Madhya Pradesh, and it is one of the most prominent national parks in the country. The park is a treasure House of flora and fauna, and the special attraction is the fish-eating crocodile that is native to the Indian subcontinent. Additionally, the National Park is home to the highest waterfalls in the country, known as Pandava Waterfalls. But one of the main attractions is surely the site of the majestic royal Bengal tigers. As they roar, it echoes throughout the jungle. Feathers are ruffled, and surely people skip a beat also. But all said and done, this is what makes Panna National Park what it is for
