Summary

[edit]
Description Most famous of the Buddhist caves is cave 10, a chaitya hall (chandrashala) or 'Vishwakarma cave', popularly known as the "Carpenter's Cave". Beyond its multi-storeyed entry is a cathedral-like stupa hall also known as chaitya, whose ceiling has been carved to give the impression of wooden beams. At the heart of this cave is a 15 foot statue of Buddha seated in a preaching pose. Amongst other Buddhsist caves, all of the first nine (caves 1-9) are monasteries. Each of the last two caves, Do Tal (cave 11) and Tin Tal (cave 12) has three stories. [Wikipedia.org]
