Khajur\u0101ho has become one of the unmissable sights for any traveller to India and owes its international reputation to the lavishness of its numerous Hindu shrines.<\/p>\n<p>Formerly an important political and religious centre, it is thought to have contained up to ninety five temples, as the many ruins concealed under otherwise anonymous hillocks scattered throughout the valley attest. Only twenty five survive.The earliest mention of Khajur\u0101ho dates from the seventh century. After the collapse of the Candella kingdom, the site experienced almost four centuries of oblivion and the once proud city-state turned into a sleepy village nestling in what had become an arid basin for several months in the year. British hunters rediscovered it quite by chance at the beginning of the nineteenth century. Since then, the area has undergone several phases of restoration, as befits one of the leading sites of the world\u2019s cultural heritage. The highly unusual nature of its temple depictions has given this area a somewhat \u201cscandalous\u201d reputation, unleashing, over the years, interpretations of all kinds.<\/p>\n<p><span id=\"result_box\" class=\"\" lang=\"en\"><span class=\"\">The price of this book is <strong>60 EUR postage included<\/strong>.<\/span><br \/>\n<span class=\"\">If you wish, a<\/span><span class=\"\"> dedication by the author Gilles B\u00e9guin will appear in your copy.<\/span> Please, indicate us the name of the beneficiary of this dedication.
