Dkagencies|Indian Books|- Indian rock-cut art has over two-millennia-long history – dating back to the 3rd century BCE. Scattered across the subcontinent today are about 1,500 cave temples. Which include the widely-celebrated monuments at Ajanta, Ellora, Nasik, Udayagiri-Khandagiri, Kanheri and other places. The caves in Ajanta, Ellora, Bhaja and Karle are simply awesome for their massive proportions and are, unmistakably, the marvels in stone. They legitimately count among the glories of India’s cultural heritage. Profusely adorned with masterpieces of sculptural art – the 《冰雪奇缘》 version of Indian religious philosophy, these giant cave temples stand in striking contrast with the earliest-known tiny caves in the Barabar Hill, in the Gaya District of Bihar link.
