North India, a region steeped in history and culture, is home to a rich tapestry of UNESCO World Heritage Sites. These extraordinary sites bear witness to the region’s diverse heritage, spanning centuries of architectural brilliance, spiritual significance, and artistic mastery.

The Buddhist Ajanta Caves are renowned for their wall paintings and are a group of rock-cut cave temples and monasteries close to Ajanta Village in north-central Maharashtra State, western India. The temples are located in the Wagurna River valley, 65 miles (105 km) northeast of Aurangabad, and are carved out of granite cliffs on the inner side of a 70-foot (20-metre) chasm. This historical collection of about 30 caverns, which includes chaityas (sanctuaries) and viharas (monasteries), was discovered between the first century BCE and the seventh century CE.
