Buddhist Tour Destinations is a journey to the 25 important Buddhist
sites in India. In the coming pages, you will learn more about these
Buddhist Sites in great detail. All these Buddhist Tour Detonations are
associated with important events of Buddha's life, visited by Buddha or
later thrived into great Buddhist centers. Each of the sites must be
visited to get a novel experience of history and religion of Buddhism.
Some of the Buddhist Tour Destinations are famous for stupa, some as
Buddhist learning centers and some for being directly associated with
the visit or religious sermons of the Lord Buddha.

The caves can be divided into two distinct phases with a gap of almost
four centuries between them. The caves of the first phase can be dated
to around the 2nd century BC. The caves of the second phase belong to
the period of the Vakatakas and the Guptas. The caves are noteworthy for
their rock-cut architecture as well as fine paintings on the walls of
the caves. The themes of the paintings are from the incidents in
Buddha's life, and depict Bodhisattvas and episodes from the Jatakas.

You will learn about the tempera technique of painting on the tour of
Ajanta Caves since the images are painted on a dry surface. The walls of
the rock were coated with a 1 cm thick layer, which consisted of a
mixture made of clay, cow dung and rice husks. A final coat of lime was
applied to produce the finished surface on which the artist painted. The
color was made from natural products. These beautiful paintings have
managed to survive till today.

The caves are divided into Hinayana and Mahayana caves. The Chaitya
Caves Nos. 9 and 10 and Vihara Caves No. 8, 12, 13 and 15 are Hinyana
Caves. The Vihara Caves Nos. 1, 2, 16 and 17 and Chaitya Caves No. 19
and 26 are Mahayana Caves. The Caves influenced by Hinyana Buddhism have
paintings in which Buddha is represented by his symbols while the caves
influenced by Mahayana Buddhism depict Buddha in his human form. The
caves are numbered to their access from the entrance. A modern terraced
path connects the caves. In the original construction, each cave was
accessed from the riverfront by individual staircases.
