Excellent experience. Magnificent structures and views all around. Locals are really not helpful and give all false information. There are a total of 34 caves among which I felt Cave 16 which is the centre one as soon as we enter and Cave 29 which is a bit far are excellent. For cave 16, If you are fit enough try to climb the hill for the top view. En route to Cave 29, you will get a waterfall and the view is really amazing. Even though this is inside, Cave 29 is huge make sure you don't miss it. It's a holiday on Tuesday(check once before you leave). It will take around 3-4 hours depending on the time you use to take pics. Overall a nice experience. Note: You won't get food inside only water so make sure you get something to eat. Since the overall duration will be more.

Absolutely fantastic, this visit here is the highlight of my stay in India so far, it's really impossible to describe. There isn't very much I can add to the hundreds of reviews already posted, here are some of the 200 photos I took on the day. If you get the chance to see the caves and the kailash temple don't hesitate, just do it, you won't be sorry.

One of the oldest temples in caves no 16 . Lovely architecture.. Clean area.. You need 4-5 hrs to spend to see whole caves. On holidays it's hugely crowded..

Amazing place. I am sure you will visit cave 16. Please visit rest of the caves as well. You need five hours minimum. Engage a guide, your visit will be meaningful

Amazing caves. It was indeed a pleasure visiting this place. Please take the tickets online to avoid the queue. You can avail the taxi inside to visit caves 32, 22 and 27. It was amazing. The waterfall is breathtaking and you can also go below the fall. Each cave has its uniqueness. Kailash temple is an architectural marvel. The top view is amazing. Some of the Caves have multi-stories. You might need one full day to visit all the caves properly. Watch the caves closely so that you can see the mural paintings also in the ceiling and walls. Please check the day, it will be closed all Monday.

Ellora caves have Hindu, Buddhist and Jain caves. Very scenic, beautifully carved and interesting caves with wonderful history. Cave 16 esp is Kailash temple and it is largest single monolithic rock excavation. Visit to this place made me feel proud to be an Indian. We come from such rich culture. The caves are well maintained. Not the stinky ones. Get a guide if you are really interested in history of caves. We got a guide who had govt ID card. He was an Archeology student and was immensely knowledgeable. This is a must visit place if you're keen to see our history and culture.

Probably the best old age temple seen till date in Maharashtra. Beautiful carved downwards and you will find amazing structures and art work inside the temple. Absolutely worth it. Fine and peaceful place.

This is one of the best ancient gallery for world. The experience over here is good. One can spend 4-5 hours easily visiting all the caves. Explorer might take more time as it is vast to know in depth. Place is kept very neat and clean. However public should not litter as there is no security guard everywhere. Entry fee is very nominal for such big place. We could see 2 waterfalls around. Must visit place. Specially Kailash temple which is centre of attraction as it consist of lot is carving beauty apart from the fact that it is impossible thing in history of carving.

Its one of the Heritage sites, mesmerizing work. Makes us think like our ancient generation had such a niche skills, and this place we well maintained and kept clean. There's a bit of problem for the parking, apart from that rest all is fine. A must visit, it would for sure take minimum of 2 hr to visit all the caves, even if you touch upon a minimum.

It is one of the largest rock-cut cave temples in world and includes Buddhist, Hindu & Jain monuments in its vast complex It has inscriptions dating back to 1400 - 1500 years This complex also features what is arguably the largest single rock excavation in the world, the Kailasha Temple. It is a large chariot-shaped construction, which though dedicated to Lord Shiva, has sculptures featuring several God's & Goddesses There are apparently more than 100 caves in the complex, though less than half of them are open for public viewing The caves open for viewing have been numbered as 1 - 12: Buddhist monuments, 13 - 29: Hindu monuments & 30 - 34: Jain monuments...

The Buddhist Monastery gave me peace and the Hindu Temples gave me strength. It is really amazing how these thousand years old structures have been preserved so well. It might take more than 4-5 hours just to visit the main caves. Also if you planning to explore more than that, hire a guide and dedicate more time. You will surely find some answers that you have been looking for.

Amazing buildings carved from the top to the mountains. This place has Hindu, Buddha and Jain temple side by side which is a living example of religious harmony existed in India. One of the caves has a 3 story building which will surprise any one who is working in the architecture field. This place has also a nice waterfall which is falling from the top of the building. A nice place to visit with family.

This place is simply amazing, we thought we can see all the caves in about 2 hrs but we were truly mistaken, it would take close to 3 and half to completely see all the caves. They also have great garden in the compound where you can sit and relax. The authorities have maintained the cave premises very well... It's a must see place... Truly recommended

Must visit this place with your family and friends. It is very important to know our culture and history. I prefer wearing shoes and caps as there is lots of walking. Washrooms are available. Almost a whole day is required to visit all the caves. Tour guides are also available there. Ample parking is also available. There are restaurants, shops for souvenirs, eatables, etc. Caves are at distance so there is a lot of walking. There are e-vehicles available at ₹30 per person who has a waiting list so it's time taking. Water bottles, drinking water taps are also available. You can carry eatables inside as well. There are small restaurants and souvenir shops outside the main entrance.

Do not miss this world heritage. It's good to have a guide along so that you don't see just the monuments. Make sure to visit the Buddha and Hindu caves. I guess that's cave number 4 and 16. Keep water bottles and light snacks with you.. It's better to be dress light and carry sunglasses too. You'll need approx 1.5 hours in case you're enthusiastic about the heritage

Ellora caves are 3 religious Hindu, Buddhist, Jain's it's surely visitable place children will enjoy 💯 It will take whole day to see all caves Guides are available they will explain the all history and importance of some statues. I enjoyed the place with whole day with family. Thank you

World class tourist place. Recommend to visit during rainy or winter time. Amazing!! Will require a whole day trip if you want to walk through all the caves. Bring drinking water during hot summer walk.

a reflection of the religious tolerance that existed during this period of Indian history. Of the Buddhist monastery caves, highlights include a number of shrines featuring carvings of Buddha and saints dating from the 5th to 7th centuries, as well as the stunning Carpenter's Cave, considered one of the finest in India. The famous monumental Ellora Caves were built between the 5th and 10th centuries by Buddhist, Jain, and Hindu monks, and make for an excellent excursion from Mumbai, some 300 kilometers to the west.

Excellent experience. Magnificent structures and views all around. Locals are really not helpful and give all false information. There are a total of 34 caves among which I felt Cave 16 which is the centre one as soon as we enter and Cave 29 which is a bit far are excellent.

Cloak Room, Water, Toilet, Rest Rooms, Bus Pick up, Drop off stands, Bus connectivity, Restaurant Connectivity There are 32 beautiful caves. Very tiring and interesting site it is. I don't want to disclose further. You must visit this place.

Super amazing place! It's a world heritage site. Cave number 16 is Marvel! You must take guide over here because to understand the intricate details, you need someone to explain. Otherwise you will just visit the place, see the stones and statues and won't understand the logic behind it. Guide will properly explain you what those monuments means. What that idol means, how they have created this monument how much stone they have removed from there? How technically difficult those things are and how they have achieved it. It's wonderful to see, understand and experience such things. Writing a short review is not enough for this monument because it's worth writing a book. There is a lots of space available for parking. Food is not available inside. There are three types of caves Hindu, Buddhist and jain. It shows that previously all those religions are no different and are interconnected to each other.

Beautiful destination to explore. There are around 34 caves open for people to visit. One of them is kailash temple, carved out of single rock it is an epitome of ancient Indian architecture. It is dedicated to Lord Shiva. There are various sculptures of other Hindu deities also. Some of the caves are also dedicated to Buddhist and Jain deities. One of UNESCO world heritage this place is one of major tourist attractions.

Amazing place, takes about 3 hrs. Guide charges Rs 1800 and it is worth. Carry own water though water bottles are on sale in the premises. Book in advance on line and carry along. The caves open at 6 AM though some sites say 9 AM, closed on Tuesdays.

Ellora Cave is the UNESCO WORLD HERITAGE site Located in Aurangabad district. A Site where you get to see some Tremendous, Beautiful and Miraculous Carvings of many Hindu, Jain and Buddhist Culture. So as I Visited this Beautiful Site in January 2021, I would like to share the precautions which were taken for Covid- Proper Temperature checks and Details of the visitors are noted, the security personnel are wearing masks and Visitors are also asked to do so. Well social distancing is not maintained but it's kind of not possible to maintain it there. For the Entry Tickets there are two options- 1) The Ticket Counters Available at the Main entrance OR, 2) You can book yourself a ticket from the website payumoney.com where you just need to fill your details and while visiting carry your ID proof. Now coming to the Caves, there are around 34 Caves in total for you to visit each having different and unique carvings and stories. Out of these 34 caves the main attraction is The Great Kailash Temple which is entirely carved in a single rock. The Temple has so many beautiful carvings each having a story of its own. After The Kailash Temple there are many Buddhists Caves where you get to see many Buddha sculptures craved with such perfection that looking at them will make you wonder how did they did it at that period of time. Visiting these Buddhist caves will give you a very soothing and calm Vibe which we generally miss in our lives today. After these Caves there are many Residential caves which also consists some Pretty carvings. Would recommend you to visit The Kailash Temple first as it is the biggest cave out of all the other and will take the most of your time as it will mesmerize you with its beauty. And yes try to get a guide if you can and if you want to know more about the History of such a great Heritage. If you want to buy some souvenir there are many people selling some small stone carved statues inside as well as outside the premises which they will try to sell you at a higher rate you just need to bargain a lot. It is a must visit Place if you are a History Lover, well even if you aren't you got to visit it and you will still Love it.

This is around 1300 years old place there are 34 caves in Ellora including the great kailasha Temple must visit here with enough of time because there is lots of caves which takes time to take a closer look to everyone. This place reminds you how powerful our culture and history. Kailasha temple is the largest single monolithic rock excavation in the world🌍

Ellora caves have Hindu, Buddhist and Jain caves. Very scenic, beautifully carved and interesting caves with wonderful history. Cave 16 esp is Kailash temple and it is largest single monolithic rock excavation. Visit to this place made me feel proud to be an Indian. We come from such rich culture.

He was an Archeology student and was immensely knowledgeable. This is a must visit place if you're keen to see our history and culture.

Nice place to visit in winter season.....This place has Hindu, Buddha and Jain temple side by side which is a living example of religious harmony existed in India. One of the caves has a 3 story building which will surprise any one who is working in the architecture field. This place has also a nice waterfall which is falling from the top of the building. A nice place to visit with family.

Beautiful place in the lap of nature, surrounded by mountains, green all around ! Well maintained place with awesome architecture. Beware of peddlers selling statues, who claim the statues are made of stone and are unbreakable, but that's not true. Please don't fall for their false stories. Rest all is gud !

wonderful place to visit. plan for minimum 1 full day to visit all the caves. have entry ticket also this place depicts the old age civilisations art and heritage. it has Siva temple also to visit

An architectural marvel where Buddhism, Hinduism and Jainism co-exists in harmony, is a must visit for everyone. It’s an wonder how single rocks have been craved into such astonishingly beautiful & detailed temples, idols & structures almost a thousand years back. Though the paintings are not much visible, the sculptures are mostly intact. One must devote at least 4 hrs to visit only the main caves. One must hire an official/approved guide (not the local ones) to decipher the sculptures & then only one would appreciate their beauty. As it’s a long walk, it’s advisable to carry water bottles and wear comfortable shoes & sunglasses.

Beautiful place. Please visit before it bio-degrades. Winter/rainy season is the best time to visit. It will take 2-3 days to cover all the caves including Jain, Hindu and Buddhist caves. You need to buy the ticket online post Covid. And need to carry vaccination certificate and aadhar/Id proof.

I visited this place more then 15 times... It is a World Heritage site. It is one of the largest rock-cut Hindu temple cave complexes in the world, featuring Buddhist and Jain monuments with artwork dating from the period 600–1000 CE. Cave 16 features the largest single monolithic rock excavation in the world, the Kailash temple, a chariot-shaped monument dedicated to Lord Shiva.

Very interesting place.. Students should be taken here for excursion and shown the cultural heritage of our country..The caves portray beautiful carvings and splendid work of art.. The caves are being well maintained by Archeological Survey of India. Bus services are present in the park for the old people which is a very thoughtful initiative.

The Ellora Caves are nothing short of a breathtaking masterpiece that takes you on an awe-inspiring journey through centuries of history and artistry. As a traveler who has been fortunate enough to witness many remarkable wonders of the world, I can confidently say that the Ellora Caves are among the most extraordinary sites I have ever encountered. Must visit master piece 🧩 I just Love it 😍

This place should be in your bucket list. 🔸It was the time of rain but still the beauty did not diminish. 🔸Why you love it: 1. It is one of UNESCO World Heritage Site 2. View from top of this site is breathtaking. 3. So clean environment and place 4. Views of mountains gardens are amazing. 5. Everything is carved in rocks, which makes this place amazing. Truly Marvel of Engineering and Art 🔸Note: Book you tickets online, no need to book tickets before arriving, just don’t buy from queue, because online it is cheaper by ₹5 🔸Enjoy the view, click some pics, take memories of ancient culture, sculptures and engineering marvel of of golden times 🔸Rest the pictures will speak a lot. 🔸💯recommended must go ✅ 🔸Thank You❤️ 🔸Take care of yourself, keep being awesome 💯✅👍🏼 🔸Be Happy, Be You 🤩 The caves are divided into three groups representing different religious traditions: Buddhist, Hindu, and Jain. Each group of caves features intricately carved temples, monasteries, and sculptures, reflecting the religious diversity of the region during that time.The Kailash Temple, a monolithic rock-cut structure in Cave 16, stands out as a true marvel of ancient engineering and artistry. The level of detail and scale of this temple is awe-inspiring, and it's one of the highlights of Ellora.

Great place to visit if you love history and have interest. Even if you don't have interest once you will visit this place and feel the vibe there you will start loving this. The caves, the temples the waterfall and many more things. Take at least 3 hrs to cover all the caves. Don't be in rush. Feel the arts.

Very rich carving. Kailas Temple is must see place which is carved from top to bottom - only one of it's kind in world. All the caves have different carving patterns. Mesmerized and surprised how they carved it with simple instruments centuries ago. It's so technically sound that it's yet preserved after 1200-1500 years of building. Do visit with guide to get maximum knowledge of unique carving at various places.

Absolutely loved it here. Contrary to what I had known earlier, this place is HUGE. There are 34 caves with many having A & B, plus there are caves above the waterfall next to cave 29 that no one visits, but I loved the solitude there. Look out for the Ganesh statue in orange in my pictures. If you are in good shape and want to spend a good 6 hours (not 2 or 3), Ellora is the place to visit, especially if the weather cooperates. I walked along the golf cart road till Cave 34, and then took the trail from 34 down.

Very beautiful must visit place once in life time.

Best place for history lovers. Neat and clean. They have maintained the cleanliness of this world heritage site properly.

Woooooooooooow fantabouls

(Translated by Google) Ellora caves are located at Arora in the Aurangabad district of Maharashtra, out of 346 caves built between the seventh and seventh centuries, Buddhists from 1 to 12 and Hindu caves from 13 to 29 and 34 from the hadiths from 34 to Ellora's cave 10. The degree which is dedicated only to the deity Vishwakarma. The Arora Giri temple was built in relation to the Rajputs. Kailash cave temple of Ellora is the best in its construction, which was built by Rashtrakuta ruler Krishna I. This craft was very influenced by Jainism and Hinduism. The elaborate mosaic from the mountain shows in art. The most impressive registration is of the Kailash temple. Cave Sholay, which is the largest statue made of a single stone rock in the world. A cave in Hindu caves is made by cutting a single mountain in this cave. The temple is carved with elephant and 2-storey chisel hammer.These caves were built by Kalachuri Chalu and Rashtrakuta kings between the sixth to twelfth century UNESCO caves in the year 1983 as a World Heritage Site.

Very fascinating place. Worth an experience. Keep in mind that it's all time exposed to hot sun, needs plenty of water. Take food and plenty of water without forget. Many water, necklace, show piece vendors are available all the time. Bargain hard for jewellery and show piece. Taking group and family photo is worth, each and every photographer takes nice photo, making u look fair and beautiful 😍. Photo make a great memory. Well maintained paid parking is easily available.

Just amazing. It was jaw dropping experience. Above and beyond the imagination. Must visit place for everyone.

One of the best places to visit of we want to see the Indian Heritage. was just awestruck by the rock carving at such a humongous scale and knowing that it's a Monolith (cave 16) is even more beautiful. The other caves were also eyefeast to watch. A must visit place.

Best Place to Visit. Must Visit historical place. Truly Marvelous. The Kailasa Cave itself will take 2 hours to see completely . (Which is literally Carved from Top to bottom) This is true and glorious History of India. (If you need any help feel free to contact me)

Best caves, seems to be maintained now a days. It should have audio guide for self explorers as guide seems to be expensive. Also all cannot be covered in within few hours. When we visited, other visitors seems to be respectful towards the structure. To explore all the caves, it might take upto 3 days .

No words to describe this place .. beautiful piece of architecture and it resembles our culture heritage . Every monument is beautifully carved . Just with chisel and hammer they did this . It's shocking to see such art of work is tried to destroy by invaders , even though they failed to destroy the architecture and in this hot weather also u feel like cool inside caves. One must and should visit this caves ...there are ,34 caves so one complete day need to spend. Overall recommended 👍

One of the best tourist places of India. Fittingly given the World Heritage tag by UNESCO. Each & every cave enthralls the tourists with its beauty. Cave 16 is the standout among all. Total time to visit all the caves would be around 3 to 4 hours.

Historical place. Number of caves to explore. You need a complete day to explore the place. A guide is recommended to know about the place in detail. Eelectric vehicle is also available for the ones who cannot walk long. Carry caps and water bottles as the weather will be very hot generally.

Its Huge and Magnificent structure. 32-34, 29 and 19 are the main caves. Do not miss to watch it from inside. Ample parking is available. Toilets are clean. Electric cars are available at just 30 rs per person which takes you from one cave to other.

Perfect place for history aspirants. I would love to visit again here. It is specially for those who can understand the importance of it, not for hooliganism. If this genre of travel doesn't excite you, then clearly avoid it for others sake. I noticed many people there shouting inside caves just to feel echo or scribbling over walls while cribbing over the long walk they had to. It clearly requires a lot of stamina to make sure to complete all the caves. Carry water bottles. and carry cash for payments.

What an Elegant and beautiful carvings, Amazingly done, it was Wonderful to see all these sculptures. The Whole mountains were carved and made temples, sculptures. Must plan to visit and praise the beauty which we used to read in our school history books.

A Marvelous Journey Through Time I recently visited Ellora Caves, and it was an awe-inspiring experience that transported me back in time. The intricate rock-cut architecture and the sheer scale of the caves left me breathless. The craftsmanship and attention to detail in each cave are remarkable. From the majestic Kailash Temple to the beautifully adorned sculptures in the other caves, every corner tells a story of India's rich cultural and artistic heritage. The site is well-maintained, and the efforts to preserve these ancient wonders are evident. The informative signage provided valuable insights into the historical significance of each cave, making the visit not only visually stunning but also educational. The serene surroundings added to the overall charm of the place, making it a perfect destination for history enthusiasts, photographers, and anyone seeking a peaceful retreat. The staff was friendly and helpful, enhancing the overall experience. I highly recommend Ellora Caves to anyone visiting the region. It's a must-visit destination that showcases the brilliance of Indian architecture and artistry. I look forward to revisiting Ellora Caves and exploring more of its hidden treasures. Feel free to customize this template based on your personal experience and impressions. Providing specific details about your visit can make your review even more helpful for others.

The place surprised me a lot and is one of the most interesting places I have visited in India. About an hour's drive from Aurangabad, along the restaurant route ...

This a great place to experience history, go with family it's great alone it's awesome.. You need to spare at least 8Hr yo explore all caves around here... Only ASI need to take care of this place no information on caves (actually every sculpture have it's story and that should be written on every sculptures) ...

Loved the experience. The caves are much cleaner than before and overall this was a very good way to get acquainted with our past.

Not enough adjectives to explain the scale and beauty of the carvings. Reach early to avoid crowds and hot sun. It takes several hours to explore 30 plus cases which consist of Buddhist, Hindu and Jain caves. Biggest highlight is the Kailash caves almost at centre of the group. It is really huge with intricately carved figures of Hindu Gods and characters from Ramayana and Mahabharata. Amazing to think that the Kailasa temple was carved out of a large hill from outside and then idols and sculptures carved on it. Generations worked on it without computer design or paper prints. Lots of planning and coordination was needed not only different workers but also generations. Tons of stone were chipped, by using chisel and hammer, one chip at a time! It will take at least 1 hour for the Kailash cave and at least two hours to explore all other caves including walk between them. One parking is at the entrance which is about centre of caves with around half each on either sides in almost a linear formation.

Great

,, 👌👍

Beautiful place to spend a holiday. You can either opt for online tickets or can purchase the entry tickets there itself. There are total of 34 caves open for public, Cave no.1-12 represent the Buddhist religion, Cave no.13-29 represent Hindu religion, and Cave no.30-34 represent Jain religion. Every cave is unique in itself, so don't miss out on any of the caves. Make sure you carry 2 Liters of water per person, as you walk a lot you must need water, also carry quick snacks with you.

very historic..... world famous.... maintained well.... wanna visit again. best time will be July August... when rains

A well trip plan if you are going to Aurangabad for holiday. Ellora caves has 13 caves in itself with it's own story in every cave to understand better sculptures are created on ancient rocks. So that even 10 year old kids can have understanding on it. At entrance first you will have to purchase token for adults only and then you can move ahead. Well if you don't carry a camera or smartphone then don't worry there are photographers who will click photos of you and will provide hard & soft copy. Well for soft copy you should carry a smartphone. For each hard copy you can buy at ₹ 30/- or if you collect a bunch of photos then they can discount on it. After that you can view all the Ellora caves. As time goes ahead you can see visitors are start to increase. Well overall a good place if you are interested in Chronology !

Amazing place , surprised for construction, there is no joint between stones while they had constructed. Whole structure was made from one huge rock. Amazing, hats of to Indian technology.

𝚊𝚠𝚎𝚜𝚘𝚖𝚎 𝚑𝚒𝚜𝚝𝚘𝚛𝚒𝚌𝚊𝚕 𝚙𝚕𝚊𝚌𝚎

Amazing, awesome, splendid! A must visit for everyone. There are paintings inside cave numbe 1, 2, 16, 17. Do opt for individual guide inside those caves when u reach in the cave itself. They wont charge much. (Around Rs 50).

Ellora caves an ancient architecture you can see and witness the archeological scriptures on the monument

Bus should drop people to 29 no. Cave also. Washrooms should be increase near cave no. 32 and cave no. 1 ,pakaged or unpackaged food should not be allowed,only water bottles must be allowed in premises. Otherwise very phenomenal experience. It was amazing experience. Superb maintenance by GOI.

I think it totally very much cool place for the one day tour for family, school and couples.... We have traveled here from Aurangabad.. And i feel this is very nice after visiting this place. So i recommend everyone to come here and see the place once a year so that you also feel very much cool ..

Come and get lost in the world of sculptures. A must see place.

Spellbinding and spectacular!!

Very well maintained. Keep up the cleanliness.

The Kailash temple chiseled top down from a mountain rock is really amazing. The only one of its kind in the world. Worth visiting this place with family and friends. Please hire a guide otherwise you will miss lotif information and will not enjoy fully.

A stunning piece of architecture. Please visit Ellora caves after visiting the Buddhist caves at Ajantha. It will give you an idea of on how architecture evolved over 900 years centuries, starting 1 BCE. While the the Kailash Temple is a mind boggling rock cut structure, d spend time at other Buddhist and Jain caves too. The walk to Sita Bath is simply amazing.

Historical place

Awesome

One of the finest UNESCO heritage site in India. Take your time to complete the visit all the caves, do not hurry. Better to have a services of authorised guide.

These are caves which are there from 600 AD. This is one of the largest Hindu temple. Detailed artwork can be seen here. Our art, culture and history is carved here. A must place to visit for a day. Very hot during summer. Crowded on weekends.

Wonder. Wonder. Wonder. No words to say about this place. It is one of the largest rock-cut Hindu temple cave complexes in the world, with artwork dating from the period 600–1000 CE. One must visit this place in their life time

Amazing caves. It was indeed a pleasure visiting this place. Please take the tickets online to avoid the queue. You can avail the taxi inside to visit caves 32, 22 and 27. It was amazing. The waterfall is breathtaking and you can also go below the fall. Each cave has its uniqueness. Kailash temple is an architectural marvel. The top view is amazing. Some of the Caves have multi-stories. You might need one full day to visit all the caves properly. Watch the caves closely so that you can see the mural paintings also in the ceiling and walls. Please check the day, it will be closed all Monday.

Totally worth the visit. What amazing architecture and just amazes on how people would have carved the caves. My suggestion is to first visit Ajanta Caves and then visit Ellora. Entry fee is nominal amount of 40Rs for Indians. No charges for camera. Better take a guide to explain otherwise you may not appreciate the caves. Its simply amazing to know all are carved out from single rock. If you start from cave 1,each one different. Then cave 16 is the most magnificent one of all. Good that there is a path to go up the hill and get view from top. Inside also so much to see. Carry enough water as there are no shops inside. Water and washrooms are near the entrance only. You can take buggy ride to the Buddhist and Jainism caves. 1 to 16 is Hindu.

This place should be in your bucket list if you are in Sambhajinagar. Why you love it: 1. It is one of UNESCO World Heritage Site 2. View from top of this site is breathtaking. 3. So clean environment and place 4. Views of mountains gardens are amazing. 5. Everything is carved in rocks, which makes this place amazing. Truly Marvel of Engineering and Art Note: Book you tickets online, no need to book tickets before arriving, just don’t buy from queue, because online it is cheaper by ₹5 Enjoy the view, click some pics, take memories of ancient culture, sculptures and engineering marvel of of golden times

It was a awesome experience visiting this place. The whole experience was just too good. I was taken up by the size of the structure! The entry and the upkeep of the caves is very good. We visited all the important caves. All were awesome it is own way. I would suggest you start from South and walk up. Infact of you don't want to walk, they operate a battery car, you can take it. Whether you take the battery car or not, you will need to walk up the cave. There is no escaping that. The steps are steep. Plan to spend atleast a day on this. Take enough water.

This is really really amazing Cave you can 20 rupees not back side of this Cave print. These cave's are very big and peaceful and calm and have amazing historical architecture.

Excellent experience. Magnificent structures and views all around. Locals are really not helpful and give all false information. There are a total of 34 caves among which I felt Cave 16 which is the centre one as soon as we enter and Cave 29 which is a bit far are excellent. For cave 16, If you are fit enough try to climb the hill for the top view. En route to Cave 29, you will get a waterfall and the view is really amazing. Even though this is inside, Cave 29 is huge make sure you don't miss it. It's a holiday on Tuesday(check once before you leave). It will take around 3-4 hours depending on the time you use to take pics. Overall a nice experience. Note: You won't get food inside only water so make sure you get something to eat. Since the overall duration will be more. Great experience here.

Masterpiece of historical excellence. Calm and serene place. How would have they managed to create then, indeed a site of importance needs to be preserved. Good place for outing with family.

One should definitely go this place to see how magnificent our engineering education was. How accurately and well crafted carved statutes of Indian history and mythology is present there. Mind blowing place.

These 34 monasteries and temples, extending over more than 2 km, were dug side by side in the wall of a high basalt cliff, not far from Aurangabad, in Maharashtra. Ellora, with its uninterrupted sequence of monuments dating from A.D. 600 to 1000, brings the civilization of ancient India to life. Not only is the Ellora complex 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.

A new world was created within the stones. Still I'm surprised how it is possible ,that the beauty of our ancients and thier will power.. It's around 34caves,more over most of them have connectivity b/w them.

Great place for a history lover. These majestic caves were built thousand years ago. 30kms from Aurangabad. One can higher cab or auto. We reserved an auto for Rs.1000 for whole day for visiting to and fro from these caves. Main attractiion is cave no. 16 Kailash Temple. Ticket price 40rs. for Indians. There are adequate neat and clean toilets inside the premises.

Despite being a world heritage site. Found some flaws. The infant care room was closed. The washroom was free for use but the cleaner was asking for money. Overall a good place to visit. One requires an entire day to visit all caves and everything around. November,2023 Rs. 40 was its entry ticket.

Beautiful must do once in a lifetime place to visit. The terrain is plain and has wheel chair access everywhere. Which was really nice to see. The highlight is the Kailash temple which is monolithic structure made from top to bottom. Has beautiful carvings still preserved very well. The best time to visit is as early as possible. The caves open around 9:30 and we were there at that time. The crowd starts coming in after 11:30. You can experience the peace of the caves before that.
