Nicely maintained an old architecture Marvel. Our heritage sites should be protected as a proof of our rich history for next generation.

Dulhadev or Dulhadeo Temple, situated on the banks of the Khurau Nala, is one of the most beautiful shrines of the Southern Group of Khajuraho Temples. This temple is the last shrine built in the southern wing of Khajuraho. The temple is also known as Kunwar Math and is dedicated to the Hindu Lord Shiva. Visitors can see beautiful carvings of Lord Shiva and his spouse, Goddess Parvati, all over the temple. There is a Shiva Linga installed inside the temple. Stunning sculptures of apsaras are carved on the temple ceilings. These intricate carvings showcase the skill and craftsmanship prevalent during the Chandela reign.

Beautiful temple said to celebrate married couples. The gardens here are the best in Khajuraho. The ASI deserves credit here for the work done to lift the experience of the grounds (especially in monsoon). I came close to dusk, but can imagine it would be even more stunning in the morning. Not the grandest or most elaborate temple compared to what is in Western Group but don’t let that stop you. Still incredible architecture and sculptures. But again, the surrounds make it peaceful to stop and enjoy.

It's a best place to sit and relax.. Has a beautiful garden Green and lush Kids friendly Beautiful architecture Best place for couples Couples may pray here for their good wedded life or girls can wish for a good groom here That's the belief people have on this temple.

This temple is dedicated to lord shiva. Before doing marriage ceremony, grooms visited this place, hence it is named Dulhadev. This temples architecture is not up to the mark compared to other temples. You can see a generation gap as it was done after few years.

This temple come under the southern gruop of temples in Khajuraho. This is a Shive temple and has many Shiva and Parvati sculptures, erotic sculptures too.This place is well maintained with greens. No entry fee and there's no wait time.

It is part of southern group of temples, named after folklore that newly married couples used to pray here in ancient times. It contains a shivling with 1000 small shivlings on it. Another gem in khajuraho

small temple in southern group. a 20 min time is sufficient to know this place.

A well maintained and gorgeous temple in the Southern Group of Temples. This is dedicated to Lord Shiva. The term dulhadeo is derived from the word holy bridegroom. Not sure about the connection with Shiva and groom. The outer walls of the temple has lot of celestial sculptures in erotic poses. Built in 1100-1150 AD, Dulhadeo is a popular place of worship for the locals. It is also known as Kunwar Math. The lovely manicured garden around the temple adds a lot of charm and serenity. Since Duladeo is among the latest additions, the built and maintenance look amazing. No entry fee is charged. Timing- Sunrise to Sunset

Slightly isolated, a lot less crowded, and this temple had a wonderful guide, Ajay Sir. He walked us through the temple and the lives and times of people who made it so beautifully.

Awesome. Hats off to our glorious Indian history and our ancestors who have created all these temples.

1kms from jain temples. Dulhadeo temple is part of the southern group of temples. It is last temple built during chandela period. The main shiv lings have incarved 999 small shivling. Mahamadap is big. Since it is out of the the main western group..people can be seen offering prayers . The temple is on the banks of small river.

This Shiva temple is traditionally known as Kunwar Matha and notable for being the latest temple of Khajuraho. It belongs to southern group and located at the southern edge of Khajuraho. It consists of a sanctum (without ambulatory vestibule), maha-mandapa and an entrance porch. The temple sikhara is clustered round by three rows of minor sikhara. Its octagonal maha -mandapa shows some peculiarities of design and decoration and it is having the largest span among all the Khajuraho temples, decorated with twenty apsaras-brackets abutting against its corbelled circular ceiling. The original temple can be dated to the early half of the 12th century C.E. and it has been extensively repaired and restore in a later date.

Most part of it was ruined by Aurangzeb. It is situated near a small river. The garbh grih of the temple opens on Shivratri. Although locals perform their worship on daily basis from outside. It was built in the shape of rath i.e. chariot. Overall a nice place to see. It would have been wonderful if it was intact.

This temple is solely dedicated to show the different postures of physical intimacy in the human race. The sculptures are carved very skillfully which will certainly make you appreciate the artists who made it. An absolutely

Looks hauntingly beautiful during the morning sunrise

Located at Southern group of temple. Do visit if you wish for peace and calmness with Lord Shiva. No eateries or shopping place outside. Spare half an hour for this temple.

It was restored, so you can't find the original art over the temple

Astounded by the architectural style of the temple. The main shivalinga has figures of around eleven hundred one lingas embossed on it.

Decent monument a lot strange stories around the name of this monument.

Beautiful. Must fir your iteniary

Very nice sculptures must visit again.

My detailed review is posted with the "Western group of temples" Just do not miss on a visit and a lesson about the history and heritage of India and the Vedic culture, which is the basis of the Hindu religion.

Magnificent temple. It is a gem in the Khajuraho group of temples.

In eastern group of temples this is the only temple with a well maintained green lawn. A river flowing beside it makes it more beautiful. Mythology about Shiva and Parvati was married here is popular among local people. Most of the front part of this temple is ruined but a meticulous attempt to make this temple look good is really appreciable. Rear part is bit different than other temples of eastern group and sculpture and statues around temple especially in rear is in good condition and it's worth visiting here. Keep exploring.....Happy travelling....

Duladeo Temple, Kajuraho, Madhya Pradesh, India The Duladeo Temple is a temple in Khajuraho, Madhya Pradesh, India. The temple is dedicated to the god Shiva in the form of a linga, which is deified in the sanctum. 'Dulodeo' means "Holy Bridegroom". The temple is also known as "Kunwar Math". The temple faces east and is dated to 1000–1150 AD. It is the last of the temples built during the Chandela period. The temple is laid in the seven chariot plan (saptarata). The figurines carved in the temple have soft expressive features unlike other temples. The walls have a display of carved celestial dancers (apsara) in erotic postures and other figures. The temple is located on the bank of the Khodar River in the southern group of the Khajuraho Group of temples in Khajuraho village. Duladeo Temple is one of the 22 temples to the Hindu god Shiva, which are among the 87 temples that were created by the Chandela rulers of Central India. The peak period of building activity was from 950-1050 AD in the small village of Khajuraho. The temples belong to the traditional religions of Hinduism and Jainism. They are identified under three groups or three zones - the western zone, the eastern zone and the southern zone. Ibn Batuta, the Moroccan traveller had attested to the existence of these temples even in 1335. The temples in the southern group are the Duladeo and Chaturbhujs. All the extant temples were inscribed in 1986 under the UNESCO List of World Heritage Sites under Criterion III for its artistic creation and under Criterion V for the culture of the Chandellas that was popular till the country was invaded by Muslims in 1202. It is also said that Madanaverman (1128–1165) of the Chandela dynasty built this temple during his reign.

The temples at Khajuraho were built during the Chandella dynasty, which reached its apogee between 950 and 1050. Only about 20 temples remain; they fall into three distinct groups and belong to two different religions – Hinduism and Jainism. They strike a perfect balance between architecture and sculpture. The Temple of Kandariya is decorated with a profusion of sculptures that are among the greatest masterpieces of Indian art.

A solitary temple as part of the Southern group of temples in Khajuraho and dated to the 11th Century. Dedicated to Lord Shiva, the temple has intricate stone carvings and symmetrical structure. Though not very well maintained, it is beautifully located. A bit off the main town and next to a river, the temple complex has a nice lawn around it. A peaceful ambience makes it a place to have a look at the carvings leisurely.
