Beautiful Badami

I've visited Badami Caves three times. These pictures were shot during my last two visits.














Art in ceiling.


This sculpture depicts one of Vishnu's Avatars- Varaha.




That's Suresh Mama.


Looks as though a smaller rock is crushed by the bigger rocks.










Notice the arched rain water drain hole in the doorway threshold?




These could be graineries or prisoner dungeons.






This is the first multi-storey stone structure I ever saw. The next one was at Hampi.
