vamana temple is one of the finest temple of Khajuraho. Situated in the eastern part it is the temple of Lord Vishnu in his Vamana avatar. Situated in the village just 1km from the main western group of temples. the relief and panel work of this temple is excellent. mostly idol of Hindu god and goddesses are created in the temple wall. The architecture follows the same like western group of temples.
