This exclusively designed excursion trip will start with your driver picking you up from your hotel at 8:00 in the morning. The heritage city of Khajuraho is not only about its beauty but also hides such outskirt locations near it. Kalinjar Fort, 130km from Khajuraho, is one such historical and architectural jewel. Situated in the Banda district, this fortress was built by the Chandela ruler on a holy hill in the 10th century.
Kalinjar means the destroyer of time. It is believed that Lord Shiva drank the poison during the churning of the great ocean and came here to overcome the ‘God of Death- Kal’. He won over his death and made this place a holy site amongst Hindus. The place came into much more existence with the formation of the fort in the Chandela Dynasty. The place holds the significance of many other historical tales and also has a unique architectural formation. Also known to be a perfect place for meditation due to its natural aura.
After the visit to the fort, we will be back to Khajuraho and the driver will drop you back at your hotel.
