  • The Pitalkhora Caves stand as a testament to the rich cultural and religious history of ancient India. Pitalkhora is an isolated monastic complex situated far away from the Sahyadri (Western Ghats) clusters in the Satamala range. It is located in the north-west of Aurangabad district, about 70 km west of Ajanta caves, 40 km west of the Ellora caves and nearly 25 km west of Kannad. It is also within a protected forest known as the Gautala Wild Life Sanctuary. It lies alongside an ancient trade route that connected the Deccan plateau with the port of Bharuch on the west and the ancient city of Ujjain to the north.
