About the Event

Dhamnar features 51 ancient Buddhist rock cut caves carved into the same hill. Dating all the way back to the 5th century CE, they feature chaityas, sculptures of the Buddha, stupas, and larger than life stone relief of the Bodhisattvas. Also nearby is the famous Dharmarajeshwar Temple, built around the 18th century. It is a perfect spot to get a glimpse of the serenity that Buddhist monks would have found!
