VINTAGE VISTAS - AJANTA & ELLORA CAVES

Take a walk back into the ancient past with our trip to Aurangabad which takes you to some of the most beautiful archeological sites in Maharashtra!

 

The marvellous caves of Ajanta with their gorgeous wall and ceiling paintings stun you with their simplicity and elegance, while the temple complex of Ellora leaves you gaping with its sheer magnitude and beauty

 

The Devgiri fort with its long snaking walls and strong standing bastions gives a commanding view of the surrounding region and the Bibi ka Maqbara, wwhich looks like a miniature version of the Taj Mahal presents one with an ode to love - for it marks the memory of a mother.
