Chaturbhuj
Temple

This
temple sports a huge, elaborately carved image of Vishnu in the
sanctum. Three kilometers south of Khajuraho, in the village of Jatkari lie
the two temples now in ruins. One of them is a Shiva temple
enshrining a marble ligham. The other one enshries a 3.3 m (11
ft.) high image of Chatturbhuja (Vishnu) in the sanctum with an
expression of transcendental calm and bliss on its face.
Over the lintel of the doorway are carved exquisite figures of
Brahama, Vishnu and Mahesh. It is a nirandhara temple of a modes
tsize similar to Javeri in plan and design consisting of a
sanctum, mandapa and an entrance porch. The shikhara of the temple
is plain.
There are three bands of scuolptures on the jangha of the temple.
The temple is an earlier and smaller version of the Duladeo temple
and can be assigned to circa 1100.
