I have travelled extensively in India and this has got to one of the best heritage sites in India. We were just overwhelmed with the magnificence of the unique place Tidy, well managed, clean (apart from the occasional plastic bottle) Should be visited in conjunction with the magnificent Ajunta caves. But unlike Ajunta, there are no pestering hawkers at this site. The handful of vendors are extremely respectful to visitors Our tip ... get there when the gate opens. We experienced sunrise on site and had 2 hours in the main cave until other visitor began arriving. That quiet time in there was special We got a pass-out at the exit, so that we could go back to hotel for breakfast, and return in the cool of the afternoon. Take your water with you ... as with all heritage sites ... there are no vendors within Enjoy this extra special part of India. We are so glad that we took the extra effort to visit Ellora. Thankyou Joanna Lumley!

Reviewed By drprmate - Pune, India
Beautiful stone art , whole temple made up by brownish red rock,The Grishneswar temple is an illustration of south Indian temple architectural style and structure. The temple, built of red rocks, is composed of a five-tier shikara. The temple was re-constructed by Shri Maloji Bhosale of Verul, (grandfather of Chatrapati Shivaji Maharaj) in the 16th century and later again by queen Ahilyabai Holkar in the 18th century. She is credited with rebuilding some of major Hindu temples such as the Kashi Vishvanath temple in Varanasi, a Vishnu temple in Gaya, and a much larger Shiva Jyotirlinga temple in Somnath.This pilgrimage site is located in Ellora (also called Verul), less than a kilometer from Ellora Caves – a UNESCO World Heritage site. It is about 30 kilometres (19 miles) north-west of the city of Aurangabad, and about 300 kilometres (190 miles) east-northeast from Mumbai.

Reviewed By RajuSalvi - Pune, India
We were on our 2 days following sightseeing trip from Pune: Day 1: a) Sant Dyaneshwar Udyaan & Jayakwadi Dam at Paithan b) Daulatabad Fort at Aurangabad Day 2: a) Grishneshwar Temple & Ellora Cave in morning b) Ajanta Cave in afternoon Helpful Tips On Dam: 1. No entry fee 2. No specific timing 3. Free parking 4. Small food centers, tea stall, corn, juice shops 5. You have to climb up the steps to reach to the Dam Gate or on Dam Top 6. Time required for visit, 20 to 30 minutes more than enough Route, Direction & Distance From Pune Bibvewadi: 1. Pune Bibvewadi to Sant Dyaneshwar Udyaan Paithan Gate - 219 km Via Ranjangaon Shirur Ahmednagar Tisgaon Pimpalgaon Shegaon 2. Sant Dyaneshwar Udyaan to Jayakwadi Dam - 1 km NB: Sant Dyaneshwar Udyaan a very very very beautiful vast botanical garden with musical fountains is closed for public since last few years after it was taken over by Government. Government has wiped out the existence of botanical garden. I visited it in 1992 & 2013. Dam is located behind the Sant Dyaneshwar Udyaan. Three options to reach Dam foothills: 1) You have to walk thru center of Sant Dyaneshar Udyaan We used this option. I won't recommend this. 2) You have to walk thru left side walk way of Sant Dyaneshwar Udyaan I recommend this option. NB: Take help of the boys or men there in front of the Sant Dyaneshwar Udyaan Gate. The boys men in front of the Sant Dyaneshwar Udyaan took money from us Rs. 15 per person & Rs.15 for parking car inside parking area of Sant Dyaneshwar Udyaan. They will pretend that computer is not working for issuing the printed ticket. The funny thing is that the computer is already out of order & garden is closed. 3. Another best option I recommend to avoid long walk is to drive your car to the Dam foothills. Ask the locals for the route. Once you reach the Dam foothills, climb up the steps or steep hill to reach Dam top & then you can walk to the Dam gate also. On reaching top, it provides excellent views all around. I have attached few photos with appropriate tag for ease of understanding. The center location of vast water reservoir will give you feel of sea / ocean without a end. It is a nice family picnic spot & I will surely recommend this for any one going via Paithan to Aurangabad or Pune.

I am still not sure why this little gem is not world famous! It’s beautifully done and the carving and Mughal architecture is just breathtaking. A must see- but do take a good guide to tell you all about its best features

The temple is located in Khuldabad, near Aurangabad. Lord Maruti's idol in the temple is in reclining position. We visited the place on Sunday, but the temple was not much crowded. Learnt that, except for Saturday and Tuesday, the temple is not much crowded. The original temple was small, now it is being expanded with new constructions. There are stalls selling souvenir and devotional items as well as restaurants near the temple.
