Cave 12 (Teen Taal)

Cave 12 (Teen Tal) at Ellora is the largest and most elaborate Buddhist cave in the complex — a remarkable three-storeyed monastery with rows of Buddha and Bodhisattva sculptures lining the halls of each level. The scale and systematic decoration across all three floors make it one of the most impressive monastic complexes in ancient India. A UNESCO World Heritage Site and top Ellora sightseeing attraction. Included in the Ellora Caves entry ticket. Allow 30 minutes for a thorough visit.
