AURANGABAD CAVES - औरंगाबाद लेणी
Aurangabad Caves are buddhist shrines located close to BiBi ka Maqbara in Aurangabad city. Aurangabad caves were carved out of Basalt rock in 6th and 7th century.
Though the Aurangabad caves sculptures are comparable to Ajanta and Ellora, the caves are much smaller, and thus less visited by tourists.
औरंगाबाद लेणी ही औरंगाबाद शहरातील बीबी का मकबारा जवळील बौद्ध लेणी आहेत. 6 व्या आणि 7 व्या शतकात औरंगाबाद लेण्या बासाल्ट दगडामध्ये कोरल्या गेल्या. औरंगाबाद लेणींची शिल्पे अजिंठा आणि वेरूळशी तुलना करता येण्यासारखी असली तरी या लेण्या लहान आहेत आणि त्यामुळे पर्यटक कमी भेट देतात.

Ajanta Caves/Aurangabad:
The Ajanta Caves in Aurangabad district of Maharashtra state of India are about 30 rock-cut Buddhist cave monuments which date from the 2nd century BCE to about 480 or 650 CE.The caves include paintings and sculptures described by the government Archaeological Survey of India as the finest surviving examples of Indian art, particularly painting, which are masterpieces of Buddhist religious art, with figures of the Buddha and depictions of the Jataka tales. The caves were built in two phases starting around the 2nd century BCE, with the second group of caves built around 400–650 CE according to older accounts, or all in a brief period of 460 to 480 according to the recent proposals of Walter M. Spink. The site is a protected monument in the care of the Archaeological Survey of India, and since 1983, the Ajanta Caves have been a UNESCO World Heritage Site.
With the Ellora Caves, Ajanta is the major tourist attraction of the Marathwada region of Maharashtra. About 59 kilometres (37 miles) from Jalgaon railway station on the Delhi – Mumbai line and Howrah-Nagpur-Mumbai line of the Central Railway zone, and 104 kilometres (65 miles) from the city of Aurangabad. They are 100 kilometres (62 miles) from the Ellora Caves, which contain Hindu and Jain temples as well as Buddhist caves, the last dating from a period similar to Ajanta. The Ajanta caves are cut into the side of a cliff that is on the south side of a U-shaped gorge on the small river Waghur, and although they are now along and above a modern pathway running across the cliff they were originally reached by individual stairs or ladders from the side of the river 10–35 m (30–110 ft) below.
The area was previously heavily forested, and after the site ceased to be used the caves were covered by jungle until accidentally rediscovered in 1819 by a British officer on a hunting party. They are Buddhist monastic buildings, apparently representing a number of distinct monasteries or colleges. The caves are numbered 1 to 28 according to their place along the path, beginning at the entrance. Several are unfinished and some barely begun and others are small shrines, included in the traditional numbering as e.g. 9A; Cave 15A was still hidden under rubble when the numbering was done. Further round the gorge are a number of waterfalls, which when the river is high are audible from outside the caves.
The caves form the largest corpus of early Indian wall-painting; other survivals from the area of modern India are very few, though they are related to 5th-century paintings at Sigiriya in Sri Lanka.The elaborate architectural carving in many caves is also very rare, and the style of the many figure sculptures is highly local, found only at a few nearby contemporary sites, although the Ajanta tradition can be related to the later Hindu Ellora Caves and other sites.Wikipedia

All About Ellora Caves (Hindi)
Ellora is located nearly thirty kilometers away from the city of Aurangabad in Maharashtra. The caves were excavated and carved out of the vertical, basalt face of the Charanandri hills. Near the cave numbered 32, we can still see the channels through which the volcanic lava once flowed. These basalt rocks are ideal material for the kind of architecture and craftsmanship that the Ellora represents, enabling the craftsmen to express their vision and art on rock as a permanent memorial.

22nd December 2017
This is my first trip to Aurangabad. I reached Aurangabad at 9PM by train. I already booked a dormitory in the railway station, which is the best way to stay on a budget trip. The dormitory costs 49/- per 12 hours. After keeping the bag in a locker, I went outside the station. The food is very cheap in Aurangabad, and I tasted a lot of items.
23rd December 2017
Today my plan to visit Bibi ka Maqbara, Doulatabad Fort, Ellora Caves, and Aurangzeb's Tomb. Bibi ka Maqbara is 5KM away from the railway station. I hitchhiked two bikes and reached there within 20 minutes. Bibi ka Maqbara looks like Taj Mahal. It was commissioned by Aurangzeb's Son Azam in the memory of his Mother Dilras Banu Begum. Due to the strong resemblance, Bibi ka Maqbara is also called the Dakkhani Taj (Taj of the Deccan). I spent 1 hour there and returned to the next destination, Daulatabad Fort.
Daulatabad Fort is located on the northwest of Aurangabad, about 20Km away from railway station. magnificent 12th-century fortress stands on a hill, Built by Raja Bhillamraj was once known as 'Devgiri', Initially a Yadav stronghold, it passed through the hands of several dynasties in the Deccan. The ‘Daulatabad’ (city of fortune) name was given by Muhamad Tughlaq, Sultan of Delhi. I reached there by hitchhiking on two bikes. I took less than two hours to reach the top. The view from the top is awesome. You can see the nearby places from the top. After spending couples of hours on the fort, I started moving towards Ellora Caves.
Ellora caves 14 KM away from the Daulatabad Fort. After waiting minutes near fort's entrance, I managed to hitchhike on another bike. The road towards the Ellora side crosses a big ghat. Ellora Caves is yet another UNESCO identified World Heritage site and is a true depiction of different religions residing together as it contains Buddhist, Hindu & Jain religious temples and religious art in the form of exquisite sculpture patronized by Hindu kings. Covering all 34 caves can be a great challenge in the interest of time, however, it is definitely a must to see a glimpse of each religion variety. I have covered all caves except two. The Kailash Temple which sits at the centre of the Buddhist, Hindu and Jain caves is one of the largest rock-cut temples carved out of a single rock. I spent a couple of hours to see all the caves and finally returned to Aurangabad.

The caves include paintings and rock cut sculptures described as among the finest surviving examples of ancient Indian art, particularly expressive paintings that present emotion through gesture, pose and form.
According to UNESCO, these are masterpieces of Buddhist religious art that influenced Indian art that followed.The caves were built in two phases, the first group starting around the 2nd century BC, while the second group of caves built around 400–650 CE according to older accounts, or all in a brief period of 460 to 480 according to Walter M. Spink.The site is a protected monument in the care of the Archaeological Survey of India,and since 1983, the Ajanta Caves have been a UNESCO World Heritage Site.
The Ajanta Caves constitute ancient monasteries and worship halls of different Buddhist traditions carved into a 250 feet wall of rock. The caves also present paintings depicting the past lives and rebirths of the Buddha, pictorial tales from Aryasura's Jatakamala, as well as rock-cut sculptures of Buddhist deities in vogue between the 2nd century BCE and 5th century CE.Textual records suggest that these caves served as a monsoo retreat for monks, as well as a resting site for merchants and pilgrims in ancient India.[10] While vivid colours and mural wall painting were abundant in Indian history as evidenced by historical records, Caves 16, 17, 1 and 2 of Ajanta form the largest corpus of surviving ancient Indian wall-painting.
