Ellora caves
एलोरा की गुफाएँ
In this Class 10 Art Education topic under Indian Architecture, students explore the rock-cut caves of Ellora, created between the 6th and 10th centuries in present-day Maharashtra. They learn how Buddhist, Hindu and Jain traditions are represented through cave planning, pillars, sculpture and religious imagery. Special attention is given to the Kailasa Temple, carved from a single rock mass, helping students understand excavation techniques, structural design, artistic detail and the cultural interaction reflected in Indian architecture.
