Holidays in India

April is the time to wake up after a long winter, enjoy the warming sun like spring and think about the upcoming vacation, for example, in the sunny nirvana country of India. Moreover, most tour operators offer reduced prices subject to early booking.

Some choose India as the most budget-friendly holiday option, while others are attracted by the mystery of this amazing country: unusual mandalas for all occasions, mysterious strangers in multi-colored saris who can dance like no other country in the world, mesmerizing with the plasticity of hand movements painted with outlandish patterns of henna and basma. This is truly a land of contrasts: aromas that are stunning, sometimes with their depth and astringency, sometimes with their stench. Pure gold here borders on incredible poverty and rags. You can either love this country or hate it, there is no other option. But if you can still feel the atmosphere of India, catch the beat of a mysterious heart, the eastern country will reciprocate your feelings.

It is believed that the construction of the monastery began in the second century BC, and active decoration already in the 3-7th century AD, when the Gupta dynasty was in power. By the thirteenth century, Buddhism had lost its influence in India, as a result of which interest in building a monastery fell and the caves were abandoned. It was only in the nineteenth century that British colonialists wandered into the hidden caves and discovered the abandoned structure. Literally a hundred years ago, construction continued and this site became not only an Indian heritage, but also entered the UNESCO list.
