Chaunsat Yogini Temple, Khajuraho, Madhya Pradesh India

The oldest surviving temple in the group (900 A.D.), this is the sole granite temple dedicated to Goddess Kali. Only 35 of the original 65 cells remain and no image of Kali has survived : not surprisingly, since this is the earliest surviving shrine of the group dated to 900 AD. Another Kali temple, which was originally dedicated to Lord Vishnu, is the Devi Jagdambe temple .

This temple that is part of the western group assumes a unique quadrangular shape. Built in late 9th century, situated about three furlongs south of the Kandariya Mahadeva Temple, this monument belongs to a very rare class of temples, dedicated to the sixty-four Yoginis, which represented innumerable  manifestations of Shakti, the female force. The temple has been erected on a platform around 15 feet high  from 14 to 18 feet high. It is the earliest surviving shrine of the temple complex.
