The caves of Ellora constitute
one of the most beautiful expressions of the art of the Indian Middle
Ages, and are designated as a UNESCO World Heritage Site. Situated
outside the city of Aurangabad, 400km northeast from Bombay, it was
created between AD 350 and 1000 by Buddhists, Hindus and Jains who
laboured to sculpt temples from the living rock. These breathtaking
caves are remarkable for their sculptures and architecture |
