Location : Mumbai- Elephanta
Caves
 Elephanta
Caves : Hewn out of solid
rock, the Elephanta Caves date
back to 600 AD, and attract
more visitors each year than
the entire city of Mumbai. No
wonder: this place resonates
with the spiritual energy of
India. The cave complex is a
collection of shrines, courtyards,
inner cells, grand halls and
porticos arranged in the splendid
symmetry of Indian rock-cut
architecture, and filled with
exquisite stone sculptures of
Hindu Gods and Goddesses. It
is situated on Gharapuri Island
in Mumbai's harbour, about an
hour's boatride from the Gateway
Of India. At the entrance to
the caves is the famous Trimurti,
the celebrated trinity of Elephanta
: there's Lord Brahma the Creator,
Lord Vishnu, the preserver and
Lord Shiva the Destroyer Unfortunately,
many of the sculptures inside
have been damaged by iconoclastic
Portuguese rulers who took potshots
at Hindu Gods with their rifles.
And yet somehow, nothing has
disturbed the sublime beauty
of this place for centuries.
