Okey, our dear moderators haven't opened a travel forum for us so I keep on posting my travel things to Eating section Actually I can post them to Ancient Egypt Forum but some people don't visit that forum I guess. I posted this post to another forum while talking about the architectures of temples and I decided to post it here as well.
The 1,000 years old Kamasutra Temples in Khajuraho/India are decorated with the figures from Kamasutra book (I think everybody knows what Kamasutra is ) The reason for putting those figures on to the walls of a holly temple is to make people have more babies for having more Hindu member. I have been there last year and I remember that I had a very tough bus trip from Orcha to Khajuraho as traveling in India is an adventure by itself. Sorry in advance for some erotic figures
There are also figures like below (sorry for putting that kind of pic again) Those human figures making sex with animals were put to tell people, that kind of thing is a really big sin. You know in ancient times, just few people could read and write and those temples were used for educating people as well. Please pay attention to the woman at the back who closes her eyes with her hands, that's the main thing telling the people how ashameful this is.

Very interesting facts about these temples - I had no idea such, ahem, decorative buildings exist. And you visited the place yourself, Shah? To see India is a dream of so many people...

I know you were going to be the first one to reply Mak. Thanks a lot... Yes I feel myself lucky to see those temples and India as well.
Hope others also find it as interesting as the 'the length' subject.

I did know those temples existed depicting architectural stories from the Kama Sutra,although i have still not travelled to India.
Nowadays many "KamaSutra"themed things have flourished all over the market as Strangeways posted above,including this kit: http://kamasutra.com/
