Pic of the Day: Ellora Rock Cut Temples, Maharashtra

From images it doesnt look much but you have to be there to appreciate the g*****ose and beauty of these structures. Especially during mansoon when many water falls flow from right above it.
It hand cut right in to the rock mountain. every thing is carved out, nothing brought in.

This whole thing used to be white making it look like mount kailash covered in snow with intricate colorful murals.
