Kanheri caves


Kanheri Caves are located within Sanjay Gandhi National Park of Mumbai. These caves are buddhist viharas ( Vihar- monastery). In Kanheri there are 100 plus caves which are mostly tiny cells that are cut into the edges of a hill. Way to these caves and view of Mumbai from the top is magnificent.

What I love about your work Ajay, is that you bring so much information and history into your art. The entrance to these caves look amazing. You also use colour so brilliantly.
