anatomically speaking, there are five sense organs in the body. these are the eyes for vision (optical), ears for hearing (auditory), nose for smell (olfactory), tongue for taste (gustatory), and skin for touch (tactile).

The above is a very common MISCONCEPTION.

There are many senses in the body, which all have a part to play in our general sense of being. The "five main senses", which are actually the External senses are:

Sight (eyes)

Hearing (ears)

Smell/Taste (chemical receptors in nose and on tongue)

Touch (nerve endings in skin)

Temperature (nerve endings in skin)

Temperature is a fundamental sense which should be explored and enjoyed as much as the others.

For more in depth information, including the internal senses, check out the wikipedia "sense" page
