Every monument and sight here can take you back to the era
of Aurangzeb. Be sure to get your camera ready to capture the remarkable
wonders.
Aurangabad Caves
Carved of soft rock, the Aurangabad Caves are usually
overlooked by tourists visiting the iconic Ajanta and Ellora Caves. Dating back
to the 6th and 7th century, Aurangabad Caves deserve equal attention to make a
delightful trip. You need to explore all the ten caves separated in two
directions – Eastern Group Caves and Western Group Caves, with 1 km of distance
in between. Cave 7 is a fan favorite with different sculptures of lovers in
various positions.
Bibi Ka Maqbara
This timeless monument is dedicated to Rabia-ul-Daurani
(Dilras Banu Begum), aka the wife of Aurangzeb, a Mughal Emperor. It is a
beautiful mausoleum and only epitome of Mughal architecture in Maharashtra.
Ustad-Ata-Ullah, the Persian architect, entirely designs it.
The silhouette of Bibi Ka Maqbara looks just like the Taj
Mahal in Agra, as it has four high minarets. The raised plinth is surrounded by
an octagonal white marble supporting the grave of Rabia Daurani in the tomb.
Its pillars’ tips are made of red stone, which looks impressive at sunset. When
the first rays of the sun cast the reflection of the mausoleum on the water, it
looks stunning in the morning.
Grishneshwar Jyotirlinga Temple
Grishneshwar Jyotirlinga Temple is well located in the
proximity to 12 Ellora Caves. You can spot Dashavtaras carved in red stone
en-route the temple. It also has a lot of marvelous statues and sculptures to marvel
at. It has beautiful carvings at the pillars to remind you of the ancient
era.
Daulatabad Fort
Daulatabad Fort is yet another best tourist destination of
Aurangabad, which is a treat for historical lovers. It reflects a triangular
shape to represent Maharashtra’s cultural heritage. It has a lot of beautiful
monuments like Elephant Tank, Chand Minar, and Chini Mahal. There is a narrow
bridge to the top of the fort.
Bhadra Maruti Temple
It is another rare place you must visit in Aurangabad. It is
wholly devoted to Lord Hanuman, who rests in a sleeping position and is covered
by Sindoor all around. Be sure to plan your trip during Ram Navami or Hanuman
Jayanti to see its true beauty.
