Location on Caves
The whole of these caves are excavated in one large bubble of a hill situated in the midst of the immense Krishnagiri forest (now called Sanjay Gandhi National Park). The neighbouring hills are covered with forests but this hill is nearly bare, its immense summit formed by one large rounded mass of compact rock, under which a softer stratum has been washed out by rains, forming natural caves, which improved by art have been approprated as cells.
