The caves of Ajanta and the roads of Maharashtra

The caves are in a wooded and rugged horseshoe-shaped ravine about 3½ km from the village of Ajinthā. It is situated in the Aurangābād district of Mahārāşhţra State in India (106 kilometers away from the city of Aurangabad). The nearest towns are Jalgāon (60 kilometers away) and Bhusāwal (70 kilometers away). Along the bottom of the ravine runs the river Wāghūr or Waghōrā (from the root vyāghra in Sanskrit, meaning the tiger), a mountain stream. There are 29 caves (officially numbered by the Archaeological Survey of India), excavated in the south side of the precipitous scarp made by the cutting of the ravine, and they vary from 35 to 110 ft. in elevation above the bed of the torrent. (N. lat. 20 deg. 32' by E. long. 75 deg. 48'). (Wikipedia)
