The Ellora Caves are 34 magnificent rock-cut cave monuments located near Aurangabad, Maharashtra, India, carved between the 6th and 11th centuries CE. A UNESCO World Heritage Site since 1983, Ellora is unique in the world for representing three of India's great religions — Buddhism, Hinduism, and Jainism — all at a single site. The caves are grouped into 12 Buddhist caves, 17 Hindu caves, and 5 Jain caves, each revealing extraordinary craftsmanship and devotion. The highlight is Cave 16 — the Kailasa Temple, dedicated to Lord Shiva and considered one of the greatest rock-cut structures in the world, carved downward from a single basalt cliff face.
