Parvati Temple




Situated immediately to the south west of the Viswanatha Temple in Khajuraho, Parvati temple is a heavily restored small shrine comprising a sanctum and porch. The porch is completely lost and of the sanctum, only the plinth has survived. The doorway belongs to a Vaishnava shrine indicated by a Vishnu figure while the image in the sanctum represents Gauri with the godha (iguana) as her vehicle.
