Mandu Attractions

Bagh Caves, consisting of nine caves, consist of Buddhist caves dating between 400 and 700 AD. These caves are famous for paintings, which resemble those found in famous Ajanta caves in Aurangabad.

These caves, made out of rock cuts, were supposed to be used by Buddhist monks as residence, also for meditation and to hold religious congregations. These were decorated with beautiful paintings on the walls and ceilings. There is a large central cell enshrining a stupa at the back end.
