Overview of your Aurangabad tour:

Ellora caves are one of the most visited ancient monuments in India and also one of the top Tourist places in Maharashtra. Adorned with beautiful sculptures Ellora caves are an amalgamation of Buddhist, Hindu and Jain monuments. The cave temples and monasteries at Ellora are excavated out of the vertical face of an escarpment. Extending in a linear arrangement, the 34 caves contain Buddhist chaityas or halls of worship, Viharas or monasteries and Hindu and Jain temples. Spanning a period of about 500 years between the 7th and 12th century A. D. the most imposing excavation is without a doubt that of the magnificent Kailasa Temple which is the largest monolithic structure in the world. Another beautiful monument in the city of Aurangabad is the Bibi-Ka-Maqbara which is the copy of the Taj Mahal of Agra. Also known as the Taj of Deccan, it is the tomb of Dilras Banu Begum, wife of Mughal Emperor Aurangzeb.
