UNESCO World Heritage - Cultural Sites
风的呢喃1963
India's fifth day - Aveda Grottoes February 26, 2019 Clear 33 degrees last night at 22 o'clock in the evening from Mumbai to Aveda Grottoes, arrived safely at 7:30 in the morning. Find a good accommodation, put down your luggage, chartered a car to the World Heritage Site Aveda Grottoes. Aveda Grottoes, located about 106 kilometers northwest of Aurangabad, the heavy town of Maharashtra on the Degan Plateau in India. In 1983, the joint UNESCO listed the Aveda Grottoes as a cultural heritage and on the World Heritage List. The Tang Dynasty monk Xuanxuan visited this place in 638 AD when he traveled to India, and made a vivid description of the grottoes in the "Tatang Western Regions", which is the earliest written record of the Aveda grottoes. The Aveda Grottoes are the temples and monk houses carved by ancient Indian Buddhists. The word Aveda comes from the Sanskrit word Ajintina, meaning "no thought" and "no thought". The grottoes were dug in the 3rd century BC, during the Ashoka era, when Buddhism was designated as a state religion. The devout Buddhists found this hilly, rolling, beautiful mountain valley for worshipping the Buddha, studying scriptures, and cultivating their bodies. It is said that the excavation work lasted nearly 1,000 years. There are 29 caves in Aveda Grottoes, which stretch more than 550 meters from east to west, and the steep wall is about 76 meters high. Four of them are Buddhist temples, with Tibetan and Sheli pagodas and 25 monk houses. In addition to architecture and sculpture, it is famous for ancient Buddhist murals. The murals with Buddhist legend and Bensheng story as the main theme are the most popular artistic treasures of the Aveda Grottoes, and the earliest ancient Indian murals in existence, known as the Louvre of the East. Foreigners tickets 600 rupees (Indian 40 rupees). Take off your shoes in the grotto, you can take pictures, no flash lights. Other measures do not seem to see special, some are equipped with air conditioning, it should be to protect the mural. All the grottoes can go in. The tickets are less than 60 yuan. It is really shocking to see the scene. They are all chiselled on the stone. It is too exquisite. Each grotto is very large and basically open. It is not like only a few in the sky. It took three hours to drive from Orangabad, 33 degrees and road construction were really hard. But when we climbed up breathlessly, the exquisiteness of the grottoes that came into view was shocking! If you have the opportunity to come to Nanyin, recommend to walk around, will not let you down.
