Khajuraho: Intense heatwave conditions have severely affected normal life and tourism in the UNESCO World Heritage town of Khajuraho, with Chandela-era temples, roads and markets wearing a deserted look as temperatures soared to nearly 46-47 degrees Celsius.
Khajuraho, known for its historic temples and steady inflow of domestic and international tourists, has witnessed a sharp decline in footfall due to extreme weather conditions. Several traders have reportedly shut their establishments due to the extreme weather, while restaurants and markets in the town have largely remained empty.
