AJANTA CAVES TOUR FROM AURANGABAD

Ajanta Caves

Since ancient times, Aurangabad has been of great importance due to its location on the famous "Silk Route" that traversed across Asia to Europe. Textiles and beads were exported to the markets of Greece, Rome, and Egypt, along with Buddhist teachings and Indian art forms.

Ajanta - 110km : (Closed Every Monday)

Ajanta's wondrous cave temples are cut into the rocky sides of a dramatic crescent-shaped gorge, at the head of which is a waterfall that drops over the mountain rim in a series of seven steps to a pool far below - the Saptakund. Dating back to the 2nd century B.C, they cover a span of 800 years where under the royal patronage of ruling dynasties, professional artists helped Buddhist monks to create magnificent murals narrating the story of Buddha in his cycle of incarnations. Etched and painted in vegetable and mineral dyes, the paintings have a languorous stylized beauty and magical eloquence. The Ajanta Caves are a World Heritage site.
