From the Ruins of - Ajanta Caves
2000
years ago, monks from all over Indian subcontinent, came together in the heart
of the Deccan, in search of the eternal truth, peace and salvation, while
creating around thirty caves that would immortalize them. On a rocky face of a horseshoe-bent gorge of Waaghur river, these monks managed to create a timeless masterpiece that
was really just a product of their devotion and love for Buddha. From around 2nd
century BCE to about 7th century AD, they chiseled and etched these
caves, creating frescos and sculptures that are a testament of art and cultural
flare of the bygone era. These caves are none other than the world famous,
UNESCO heritage site, Ajanta Caves.
