Biki-ka-Muqbara

Route :10 km from aurangabad

This is called mini taj mahal. But the meaning sense its mightier than Taj mahal for its built in memory of his mother. Aurangazeb's first son built this monument(if i am right)..surrounded by gardens..

..as i went alone..i am roamin here and there..to be back in time! :)

Route :Ellora is quite close to aurangabad

MARK OF ELLORA:There are three parts..jain temples,hindu temples and buddhist temples! all together in single!that shows the unity and kinda of maturity those ppl showed..that the mark to the place!

After the essence of ajanta it was time for ellora 26-1-2006 ..i had taken a indian tourism bus..so it wasnt hard for me..there were nearly 7 places that we had to visit on the same day..i am posting in different articles as to differentiate its beauty!

There is distinct difference between ajanta and ellora caves..there is lot more painting in ajanta..ellora is more the awesome built!..kailash temple in itself is worth watchin ..to go any part of the world for its beauty!..
