This place is absolutely amazing. We went here many years ago, as well as to the Ajanta Caves also in Maharashtra. Both sites are in my top 10 of amazing cultural sites - really worth a visit, and I think they are not as well known as they deserve.

I nearly convinced my family to go there!

We were on the back of an amazing - but tiring - wedding visit, from N.Z. and the teens had kinda had enough, tragically...

Pretty sure that's what they were going for, too... Some long term planning going on, for sure
