Description

About Elephanta Caves: The Elephanta Caves, located on Elephanta Island in Mumbai Harbour, are a series of rock-cut temples dedicated to the Hindu god Shiva. Dating from the 5th to the 8th century, these caves are renowned for their stunning carvings and grand sculptures. The most famous of these is the Trimurti in Cave 1, a majestic three-headed depiction of Shiva that represents his threefold role as creator, preserver, and destroyer. The caves are a remarkable example of Indian rock-cut architecture and offer a profound insight into the cultural and religious history of ancient India.
