We have all read about history about ajanta and ellora from childhood . As mentioned in history it's much more beautiful than described . We must not forget appreciate their talent. The best time to visit is in mansion please avoid summer because of cave you feel your in sauna bath. Fun apart . Both the caves has sculpture explaining Hindu , Jain and Buddhist culture .
Ellora , you need one full day if you wanna completely explore Ellora. Beautiful carving and paintings . I was surprised to see 3d paintings . My favorite is kailasa temple , you will hear lot of stories about this temple as a mystery . In Ellora the temples and monastery have been Cascaded in different places but one campus . One will actually get confused which all to visit . You can check with local people to guide you .
Ajanta one stone carvings , before entering ajanta you can get a quick view from ajanta view point which is 10 km ahead ajanta . You will get a mesmerises view of whole ajanta here. From there you can walk down to main place . Here you can find buddist stupas and Jain temples .
