TEMPLES AND TREASURES OF INDIA ELLORA CAVES
AJANTA CAVES
Dating from the 4th century, Ellora is one of the largest rock-cut monastery-temple cave complexes in the world, and a UNESCO World Heritage Site. Comprised of 34 monastries and temples, extending over more than 2km, this magnificent site displays the incredible history of ancient India. The sanctuaries are devoted to Buddhism, Hinduism and Jainism, and illustrates the spirit of tolerance that was characteristic of ancient India.
These Buddhist cave temples are amongst the most ancient in the world, dating from around 200 BC, and continued to be added to until 650 AD. As Ellora developed and Buddhism gradually declined, the Ajanta caves were abandoned and eventually forgotten. But in 1819, a British hunting party stumbled upon them, and their remote beauty was unveiled to the world once again. The cave’s isolation contributed to the interior paintings’ fine state of preservation.
