Aurangabad Ajanta Holiday Packages
What’s All the Fuss about Aurangabad Ajanta Ellora?
Antiquity is at the very heart of Aurangabad Ajanta Ellora tour. For anyone remotely interested in the age-old history of imperialism in India, Aurangabad has a special place in their heart. Its origin dates back to as early as 2nd century BCE, and over the years the historic city has changed hands multiple times till the British reign took over. During the earliest Buddhist era, multiple viharas or caves were carved out of the rocks, which are now the famous tourist destinations – Ajanta and Ellora Caves. These rock-cut sculptures are UNESCO World Heritage Sites and undoubtedly one of the best surviving examples of ancient Indian art and paintings, and their speciality is in their vividly expressive forms through poses and gestures. Later on during the Sultanate and the Mughal regimes, other famous Islamic additions to the city’s fabric were made.
What’s Special about Aurangabad Ajanta Ellora Tour?
Aurangabad is a city where remnants of every major imperial era can be witnessed. Straddling the Deccan Plateau right in the middle of Maharashtra, this great town offers simply too many historic sights to behold, including the 52 gates which have earned Aurangabad the nickname, City of Gates. Aurangabad Ajanta Ellora tour package will first take you to the Taj Mahal look-alike monument, Bibi Ka Maqbara. Although founded by a Deccan prime minister called Malik Amber, the city is actually named after its much more famous ruler Aurangzeb, appointed as a viceroy by his father Shah Jahan. He spent very little time in the city itself, being busy fighting futile battles down south, but the city did get his name which it holds till date. Similar to its grander inspiration, Bibi Ka Maqbara too is a mausoleum dedicated to Aurangzeb’s wife, except this one is built by their son. While you are visiting Islamic structures, try to include the Tomb of Aurangabad, 24 kilometres from the city and Daulatabad Fort a few kilometres north-west, which earned the title of ‘best fort of India’ from the British because of its impregnable fortifications. Ajanta and Ellora Caves are definitely the highlight of the tour. The 30 caves of Ajanta and 34 caves of Ellora caves were carved under Buddhist, Jain and Hindu influences from around 2nd century BCE to 480 CE and have exceptional displays of ancient art. The Aurangabad Caves are much nearer to the city, which has 12 caves of Tantric Buddhist influence. One of the 12 Jyotirlinga Shiva shrines, Grishneshwar Temple, is also situated in Aurangabad.Reserve with one of the tour packages for aurangabad-ajanta to have a wholesome travel experience.
