City Map of Aurangabad - Maharashtra
This charming town of Aurangabad found on west-central Maharashtra state, western India, was founded in 1610. It has a long artistic and cultural history having been inhabited since the Stone Age. Just in the hills to its North was where British officers in 1819 came to discover a horseshoe-shaped cliff meshed with what they thought were caves.
After some time of burrowing through its weathered interiors of debris and discarded objects, much to their surprise, they found themselves looking at elaborately carved and painted rooms cleaved from the solid rock.
