Summary

Description
English: The Aurangabad caves are twelve rock-cut Buddhist shrines carved in 6th-7th century CE.

They are located on a hill running roughly east to west, close to the Bibi Ka Maqbara in Aurangabad, Maharashtra.

These show Hinayana, Mahayana and Vajrayana styles of artwork. Notable are goddesses carved with the Buddha, whose iconography is close to those found in Shaktism tradition of Hinduism.
