Ajintha : Oct 2014

We left early in the morning to start our one and half day tour to Aurangabad, Maharashtra. We directly went to Ajanta Caves. A site of Archaeological importance. Situated in a densely forested area, it creates surprise at every point.


Pause point before you start journey through history.........

Our mesmerizing journey through these caves ended at a waterfall. We took a beak for night and started our next day early in the morning with visit to Sukhana Lake. After leaving main road, we traveled on mud road for last few kilometers to Sukhana lake. As it was not a peak season to spot migratory bird, nothing much could be spotted. Thought of taking another road to avoid the mud road which we traveled on. that road of 10 Km took 2 hrs....... Radiated got heated up...... everyone was walking outside the car to check probable injury to the vehicle....
