Aurangabad Caves

Twelve Buddhist caves on a ridge above the city, with unusually fine carved figures and a view back over the plain.

About Aurangabad Caves

Overshadowed by Ajanta and Verul, and much quieter for it. The carving in the later caves — particularly the dancing figures in Cave 7 — is as accomplished as anything at the more famous sites, and you will often have it largely to yourself. Twenty minutes from the city centre.

Visiting Aurangabad Caves from the hospital

Aurangabad Caves is approximately 8 km from Chhatrapati Sambhajinagar, where several of our partner hospitals are located. Two hours. We can arrange a car and driver, and if you are travelling with a recovering patient we will check the plan with the treating doctor first.
