Kailasa Temple. Carved directly into a basalt rock cliff,this temple forms part of the large Ellora Caves complex,near Aurangabad,Maharashtra State,India. The temples date from 600-1000,and are a mixture of religious carvings from Buddhism,Hinduism and Jainism. The basalt rock is part of the massive Deccan Traps lava flow that,around 66 million years ago,covered what is now west- central India. Photographed in 1999 | |
