Khajuraho was, for many centuries, a small obscure village in central India; in 1838 a British army engineer, captain T S Burt, visited the area and rediscovered an extraordinary group of temples built between the 10th and 12th centuries. Khajuraho is situated in Madhya Pradesh, south of the gangetic plain and north of the rising Deccan plateau. The expansive landscape of the state is cradled by the Vindhya and Satpura hill ranges and watered by large rivers, the Narmada and Chambal.

Vishvanath temple was built in 1002 A.D. and has the five parts temple design similar to that of the Kandariya Mahadeva temple. Since the shrine has Shiva's vehicle the bull Nandi, it was obviously dedicated to lord Shiva. Steps lead upto its high terrace, flanked by lions on the northern side and elephants on the southern side. The sculptures around the Vishvanath temple include the usual Khajuraho scenes but the sculptures of women in this temple are remarkable for their delicacy and beauty. The women write a love letter, fondles a baby and play music. Inside the temple there is a polished 2.5 metre high Lingam.
