കലയും വാസ്തുവിദ്യയും
ചന്തേലകൾ അവരുടെ കലയ്ക്കും വാസ്തുവിദ്യയ്ക്കും പേരുകേട്ടതാണ്. അവർ പല സ്ഥലങ്ങളിലും നിരവധി ക്ഷേത്രങ്ങളും ജലാശയങ്ങളും കൊട്ടാരങ്ങളും കോട്ടകളും കമ്മീഷൻ ചെയ്തു. അവരുടെ സാംസ്കാരിക നേട്ടങ്ങളുടെ ഏറ്റവും പ്രശസ്തമായ ഉദാഹരണമാണ് ഖജുരാഹോയിലെ ഹിന്ദു, ജൈന ക്ഷേത്രങ്ങൾ. ജയപുര-ദുർഗ (ആധുനിക അജയ്ഗഡ് ), കലഞ്ജര (ആധുനിക കലിഞ്ഞാർ ), മഹോത്സവ-നഗര (ആധുനിക മഹോബ ) എന്നിവയാണ് മറ്റ് മൂന്ന് പ്രധാന ചന്തേല കോട്ടകൾ. <mapframe text="Chandela territory, as indicated by the find spots of inscriptions issued during the Chandela reign" width="400" height="400" zoom="5" longitude="80.5" latitude="25.5"> {	"type": "FeatureCollection", "features": [ {			"type": "Feature", "properties": { "marker-symbol": "monument", "title": "Ahar, Tikamgarh" }, "geometry": { "type": "Point", "coordinates": [78.98821, 24.73148] } },		{			"type": "Feature", "properties": { "marker-symbol": "monument", "title": "Ajaygarh (Ajaygadh)" }, "geometry": { "type": "Point", "coordinates": [80.26977, 24.88974] } },		{			"type": "Feature", "properties": { "marker-symbol": "monument", "title": "Augasi" }, "geometry": { "type": "Point", "coordinates": [80.73114, 25.67960] } },		{			"type": "Feature", "properties": { "marker-symbol": "monument", "title": "Bamni (Bamhni)" }, "geometry": { "type": "Point", "coordinates": [79.74840, 23.86925] } },		{			"type": "Feature", "properties": { "marker-symbol": "monument", "title": "Bateshwar (Baṭēśvara)" }, "geometry": { "type": "Point", "coordinates": [78.54203, 26.93506] } },		{			"type": "Feature", "properties": { "marker-symbol": "monument", "title": "Charkhārī" }, "geometry": { "type": "Point", "coordinates": [79.75010, 25.40188] } },		{			"type": "Feature", "properties": { "marker-symbol": "monument", "title": "Deogarh (Dēogaḍh)" }, "geometry": { "type": "Point", "coordinates": [78.23765, 24.52637] } },		{			"type": "Feature", "properties": { "marker-symbol": "monument", "title": "Dhurehati (Dhurēti)" }, "geometry": { "type": "Point", "coordinates": [81.36057, 24.47131] } },		{			"type": "Feature", "properties": { "marker-symbol": "monument", "title": "Dobh (Ḍubkuṇḍ)" }, "geometry": { "type": "Point", "coordinates": [77.04493, 25.73075] } },		{			"type": "Feature", "properties": { "marker-symbol": "monument", "title": "Dudhai (Dudāhī)" }, "geometry": { "type": "Point", "coordinates": [78.38907, 24.42695] } },		{			"type": "Feature", "properties": { "marker-symbol": "monument", "title": "Gadha, Chhatarpur (Garrā)" }, "geometry": { "type": "Point", "coordinates": [79.38879, 24.75469] } },		{			"type": "Feature", "properties": { "marker-symbol": "monument", "title": "Gwalior" }, "geometry": { "type": "Point", "coordinates": [78.18283, 26.21829] } },		{			"type": "Feature", "properties": { "marker-symbol": "monument", "title": "Ichhawar, Banda district (Ichchhāvar)" }, "geometry": { "type": "Point", "coordinates": [80.49383, 25.87669] } },		{			"type": "Feature", "properties": { "marker-symbol": "star", "title": "Kalinjar (Kālañjar)" }, "geometry": { "type": "Point", "coordinates": [80.33032, 25.48933] } },		{			"type": "Feature", "properties": { "marker-symbol": "star", "title": "Khajuraho" }, "geometry": { "type": "Point", "coordinates": [79.91985, 24.83185] } },		{			"type": "Feature", "properties": { "marker-symbol": "star", "title": "Mahoba" }, "geometry": { "type": "Point", "coordinates": [79.87242, 25.29210] } },		{			"type": "Feature", "properties": { "marker-symbol": "monument", "title": "Mau, Jhansi district" }, "geometry": { "type": "Point", "coordinates": [79.11251, 25.25011] } },		{			"type": "Feature", "properties": { "marker-symbol": "monument", "title": "Nanora", "description": "Also known as Nanaora or Nanyaurā" }, "geometry": { "type": "Point", "coordinates": [79.69932, 25.19433] } },		{			"type": "Feature", "properties": { "marker-symbol": "monument", "title": "Narwar" }, "geometry": { "type": "Point", "coordinates": [77.91103, 25.64879] } },		{			"type": "Feature", "properties": { "marker-symbol": "monument", "title": "Pachar (Pachhār)" }, "geometry": { "type": "Point", "coordinates": [78.75612, 25.58556] } },		{			"type": "Feature", "properties": { "marker-symbol": "monument", "title": "Sagar - Laxmipura" }, "geometry": { "type": "Point", "coordinates": [78.73203, 23.83160] } },		{			"type": "Feature", "properties": { "marker-symbol": "monument", "title": "Semra Sanodha" }, "geometry": { "type": "Point", "coordinates": [78.99104, 24.31841] } }	] }
