The Ajanta Caves - Ancient Temples Carved from Rock

After reading about these caves in a article a friend sent me, I decided to do a small piece on the Ajanta Caves.

The Ajanta Caves can be found in Maharashtra, India. They are massive rock cut caves. They were built around 200 BCE and the site is a UNESCO World Heritage Site.

Here are some amazing pictures:
