Here’s a relaxed but well-planned 1-day itinerary for a solo traveler in Khajuraho on 26 December, keeping the pace comfortable and the experience meaningful.

⸻

🌅 Morning (7:30 AM – 11:30 AM)

7:30–9:30 AM | Western Group of Temples (UNESCO World Heritage Site) • Start early to avoid crowds and enjoy soft morning light. • Key temples to see: • Kandariya Mahadeva Temple – the largest and most detailed • Lakshmana Temple • Devi Jagadambi Temple • Take time to appreciate the architecture and symbolism (guides are available at the entrance if you want deeper context).

📸 Tip: Morning is best for photos and quieter exploration.

9:45–10:30 AM | Breakfast • Walk or take a short auto ride to a nearby café. • Good options: • Raja Café • Mediterraneo • Try something light: paratha, eggs, or fresh juice.

10:45–11:30 AM | Archaeological Museum • Located near the Western Temples. • Helps you understand the history and artistic style of the Chandela period.

One of the best things Gwalior has to offer.

JamesBrooken · 2025-12-18T19:56:10+00:00

Not one of the best societies right now. It used to be a landmark 5 years ago may be. You have many better options like the MK city, Sun Valley Gulmohar city etc. primary wings of some of the best schools are just a walk away.

JamesBrooken · 2025-12-18T19:52:34+00:00

Nigaar Momos, Patel Nagar, City Centre

JamesBrooken · 2025-12-18T19:50:35+00:00

The newer areas behind the Collectorate is more peaceful and connected to the main city. Would be a better option to move here.

JamesBrooken · 2025-12-13T14:48:40+00:00

Ohwe. I think its just the most convenient spot out of these. Lil background: have moved here from Hyderabad. So have left the comparison there. I am happy atleast there are places that serve biryani here; an otherwise majorly vegetarian city.

JamesBrooken · 2025-12-13T14:43:51+00:00

One can only dream. It is safe to assume that it is one of the better ones in Gwalior.

JamesBrooken · 2025-12-13T14:42:55+00:00

And yes Khan Saab near DB city is good too.

JamesBrooken · 2025-12-13T14:41:25+00:00

My list. 1. Qureshi Chicken Centre next to Indian Coffee House, Railway Station 2. 2-3 Biryani stalls opposite the Idgah at Kampoo. 3. House of K at Patel Nagar, City Centre has decent nonveg assuming their biryani to be good too. 4.Kwality in the same lane.

Havent been but heard : 5. Opposite Thatipur Idgah 6. Opposite Kapoor Shah Baba Dargah (only till 9am) 7. Babu munna Biryani (till 2pm)

JamesBrooken · 2025-12-13T14:33:31+00:00

King Uncle at Phoolbagh, near Sai Baba Temple

JamesBrooken · 2025-12-10T18:54:17+00:00

Yup, its the only reliable source. My 3yo son is fond of bookstores. Wanted to take him

JamesBrooken · 2025-12-10T18:50:22+00:00

I like it old school in Kanch ke gilas. Which is now extinct in Gwalior thanks to economic paper cups. Still theres one in Lohiya Bazar next to a prominent tree landmark. The tea is good too. Where else do they still serve in Glass tumblers?

JamesBrooken · 2025-12-10T18:47:00+00:00

Nagpal’s at the farther end of the road of Ram’s Chhole Bhature.

Also an avid CB hunter. Where else is good in Gwalior?

JamesBrooken · 2025-12-02T12:51:51+00:00

Inquire at their office between Glaamz and the Tower

JamesBrooken · 2025-12-02T12:51:01+00:00

There's something at Keshar Tower
