There is not one but many caves here.

Please note that there is no provision for food and water here and that this place is isolated.

As we entered the caves premises, we bumped into a group of boys, they had come there to do photography project, as most of them carried DSLR cameras with tripod and lighting. So I knew that we had company.

These are rock cut caves, as in a rocky hill was cut to make these caves.

They were not designed like the Buddhist Caves though.

They were also underground as in a series of narrow steps takes one downstairs to the caves.

The caves are free from graffiti.

Again the way the caves are structured, photography becomes a bit difficult as one finds it difficult to get the angles right.

We then headed over to see Edits of Ashoka.
