O atrakciji
Brze činjenice: Uklesane u dva brežuljka udaljena samo 6 kilometara, ove špilje nude 117 prostorija uklesanih u stijenu koje su koristili džainski redovnici prije dva tisućljeća. Samo špilja Rani Gumpha ima 31 prostoriju raspoređenu na dvije etaže s raskošno isklesanim frizovima.
Istaknuto: U špilji Ganesh Gumpha pronaći ćete klesani panel koji prikazuje možda najstariji poznati prikaz plesne drame u Indiji, s glazbenicima i izvođačima zauvijek uklesanima u kamen. Natpis "Hathigumpha" uklesan u padinu brda priča priču o kralju Kharaveli u 17 redaka teksta na prakrtskom jeziku, služeći kao novine stare 2000 godina.
Insajderski savjeti
- Wear sturdy shoes with grip, as the stone staircases can be slippery and uneven in several sections.
- Head straight to Rani Gumpha first, the largest cave, before tour groups arrive around 10 AM.
- Look for the sculpted elephant frieze on the upper level of Udayagiri, easily missed but incredibly detailed.
- Bring water and a small flashlight to examine the darker interior chambers where carvings are best seen.
