INTRODUCTION

After Preeti's wedding on 22 Jan 07, Bhawani asked me to accompany him to see Ajanta and Ellora caves. We took Madura Express to Aurangabad on 26th Jan midnight. After a very comfortable journey we reached there at 10 am. We took an auto to the MTDC office, less than a km away. They advised us to visit Ellora right away (27 km) by Auto or Taxi. On the way to Ellora caves we stopped at Dalutabad Fort. It is right on the highway to the caves. The fort is in a dilapidated condition, almost like Golcunda fort, just a shade better. On way back we visited the grave of Aurangzeb and Bibi Ka Maqbara. Enjoy the photos and read about the history behind this golden chapter of our history.
