In the local dialect, "Apani Dhani" means "Our Hamlet", an affectionate name given to the place by Ramesh C. Jangid, founder of the ecolodge and a pioneer of a form of militant tourism in India, especially in Rajasthan and his own native region of Nawalgarh.

<a href="/india/">When traveling in India</a>, most tourists plan to see the Taj Mahal and the erotic sculptures, which depict the Kama Sutra, at Khajuraho. Every day, thousands of tourist laden coaches arrive at this little village, nestled in the Indian countryside, packed with visitors who want to see the temples, the oldest of which dates back to the 9th Century.  Groups crowd around the erotic sculptures, but these carvings only represent 5% of the incredible works found on the facades of the numerous temples. I was fascinated by these delicate scenes, all chiseled in marble. I suggest you stay over at Khajuraho, so you can take the time to fully appreciate the site, once the tourist coaches have left.

The village of Madhya Pradesh is renowned for temples decorated with erotic sculptures.

Registered as a UNESCO World Heritage Site, the temples of Khajuraho, with their erotic sculptures, have become a main attraction of <a href="/india/">tourism in India</a>. Minors, do not read beyond this point. Adults, follow me for more about the visit. Upon first glance, Khajuraho is a small peaceful village in the midst of the beautiful countryside. "Wait! There are still minors on the page! Shoo!" Let's continue. First, here's the temple of Lakshmana. Ah! Let the festivities begin! Besides the Kama Sutra and Tantric classics, some are really graphic and there are even some scenes of bestiality with a mare. A little less dirty eroticism with voyeurs who fake hiding their eyes. There is also a whole series of funny scenes where an elephant is laughing while watching a couple. At 35 meters high, the temple of Kandariya Mahadeva is famous for its most improbable erotic sculpture. See that...but how do they do it? This is something to try at home after warming up. The man is doing a "break dance style" headstand, with his head on the ground. The woman then overlaps him, supported by two girls or guys (depending on your own tastes). A two-layered problem: finding consenting friends. Then from a physiological standpoint, with the head down, the man's blood will rush to his head, leaving not much for an erection. In any case, I cannot be held responsible if you hurt yourself. Nice for a visit.

400 km from Agra, Khajuraho is an absolutely unique archaeological site. Lost in the countryside, the village contains erotic sculptures famous all over India.
