Evening in Ellora

Kailash cave (#16), Ellora, Maharashtra, India

 

Ellora caves are rock-cut hindu temples, excavated from the basalt cliffs in the Charanandri Hills. Cave #16 is the largest of approx. 100 caves, among which 34 can be visited. It has been carved out of a single rock, directly from the cliff. The whole set of sculptures is actually one single piece!

 

This photo depicts the central part of the cave. Press L and F11 for best viewing.
