The town laid low through most of the tumultuous history of medieval India and only hit the spotlight when the last Mughal emperor, Aurangzeb, made the city his capital from 1653 to 1707. With the emperor’s death came the city’s rapid decline, but the brief period of glory saw the building of some fascinating monuments, including Bibi-ka-Maqbara, a Taj Mahal replica, and these continue to draw a steady trickle of visitors.
The most famous tourist attraction of Aurangabad is the Ajanta and Ellora Caves. Declared a World Heritage Site by UNESCO, the Ajanta Caves are home to 29 different caves, all of which showcase Buddhist artwork belonging to the period ranging from 200 B.C. to 650 A.D. The Ellora Caves, a little distance away from the Ajanta Caves, houses a total of 34 caves and have sculptures and paintings depicting not one, but three different religions – Hinduism, Buddhism, and Jainism. The Kailasha or Kailashanatha temple is the largest monolithic rock-cut structure in the world located in cave 16 of Ellora Caves.
