<dc:title>Carvings at Ellora</dc:title>
<dc:description>Ellora caves are carved out structures, extending more than 2 km, the highlight being the Kailasa
temple between 7th to 10th centuries and the Buddhist halls of learning. The Ellora caves are
a group of 34 caves and include construction for Buddhism, Jainism and Hinduism. We can find
temples, Buddhist halls and dinner rooms for the Jain community at the site. The reason it is
considered a cultural site is not just because of several monuments here but also the engineering
and work put into their construction. The Kailasa temple which has lasted several centuries was
chiseled from a mountain top to bottom, this along with the depiction of Mahabharata and
Ramayana could be found on the walls, the depiction was made as stone carvings rather than words.
The caves also show several stories from the mythologies of Hindu, Buddhist and Jain beliefs.</dc:description>
