Ellora


After Ajanta, we went to Ellora. It has many rock temples similar to those of Ajanta, but there are not only Buddhist, but also Hindu and Jain temples.


The Kailashanatha temple is really breathtaking. It's huge, and it's hard to imagine that people cut it all out of massive rock.


Inside the temple complex.

A professional photographer asked us to pose with his customers, well aware of the mysterious penchant of Indians for having their picture taken with us.

We, on the other hand, have a mysterious penchant for posing with elephants.
