Though built in the customary five-shrine style, the Duladeo Temple (about 900 yards south of the Eastern Group’s Ghantai) looks flatter and more massive than most Khajuraho shrines.
Probably the last temple built in Khajuraho, dated to the 12th century; the Duladeo Temple lacks the usual ambulatory passage and crowning lotus-shape finials.
It has some vibrant sculptures, but many are clichéd and over decorated. Here, too, in this temple dedicated to Shiva, eroticism works its way in, though the amorous figures are discreetly placed.
