Ajanta & Ellora Caves Tour

Ajanta Caves - The famous Ajanta caves are situated about 100 kms away from Aurangabad district in the state of Maharashtra in India. The caves are cut from the volcanic rocks of the Deccan plateau in the forest ravines of the Sahyadri Hills and are set in beautiful sylvan surroundings. They were discovered accidentally by a British Captain, John Smith in 1819, while on a hunting expedition. These caves are dedicated to Lord buddha.

Ellora Caves - 34 monasteries and temples comprise the famous Ellora Caves. The caves extend over 2 kms and were dug side by side in the wall of a high basalt cliff, in Aurangabad, Maharashtra. The sequence of monuments in Ellora date from A.D. 600 to 1000, and brings the civilization of ancient India to life. The Ellora complex is not only a unique artistic creation and a technological exploit but, with its sanctuaries devoted to Buddhism, Hinduism and Jainism, it illustrates the spirit of tolerance that was characteristic of ancient India.
