The Khajuraho temple group is one of the most popular tourist destinations in India. The temples are of Hindu and Jain origin, well-known for their highly erotic sculptures. There are actually many carvings around and inside the temples mainly depicting everyday life; the erotic carvings form only something like 15% of all the carvings. However these erotic depictions of various positions of copulation are what make these temples well-known around the world. The erotic carvings are all outside the temples and never next to a deity carving, leading to the interpretation that it depicts a devotee having to leave his/her sexual desires outside the temple to see or get close to a deity.
I was told by Indians that Khajuraho is a honeymooner favourite- I wonder why? Incidentally the few photos of these carvings in my flickr collection are some of my most viewed ones.

well honeymooners would get some inspiration from the sculptures, and it would be arousing too. for the arranged marriage brides the groom might be suggesting the acts he'd like to do :) just my wild guesses
kindly don't mis interprete the Hindu culture nowhere says nudity allowed but artists were given liberty actually these are not temples but picnic spots .
