Kanheri Caves |
|
Experience the 1st century BC caves nestled within a national park. |
|
|
|
|
A fabulous example of Buddhist influence on India, the Kanheri caves are a set of 109 Buddhist caves, chisseled by hand, from the living rock of a 1500 feet high ravine,dating back to 1st century BC!
An added advantage of visiting these mesmerizing caves are that they are located deep withing the forests of the Sanjay Gandhi National Park, located north of Borivali on the western outskirts of Mumbai, India.
This is an ideal short tour if you want to see ages old Buddhist caves and yet not travel too far away from Mumbai. |
