Photo of the Week - Ellora Caves Kailasa Temple

Monday July 13, 2009

This large stone elephant is one of two in the Kailasa Temple, at the Ellora Caves in Maharastra.

The Ellora and Ajanta caves are a deservedly popular India tourist attraction. As well as being one of India's top historical places, they're a remarkable architectural feat. All of them have been hand carved out of stone! The detail and amount of work is incredible.

What would be my port of entry into India if I wanted to go to Ellora Caves ? Would it be Bombay ?

Thanks GoIndia. Do you know any good ticketing agens that do good deals to India ? I saw some names like namrada.com and bharattickets.com , myindiatickets.com and they seem to be offering good prices. Is that the way to go ?

Thnx GoIndia. I was looking to make a trip to India before this summer ends and was shopping around for tickets. Found some sites like namrada.com, bharattickets.com , myindiatickets.com and they seem to be giving decent prices. Is that the way to go ?
