Ellora Caves (UNESCO/NHK)

If you plan to visit this go by morning it will take whole day to watch all the caves and kailasa temple. This place will be closed by 5:50 P.M everyday. The Cab drivers will suggest mini TajMahal and local temples before visiting this but don't go by their plan, first go to this place.

Ellora is a notable Hindu temple dedicated to Lord Shiva. While it's historically associated with Hinduism, the caves as a whole showcase a remarkable synthesis of various religious traditions, including Buddhism and Jainism.
