Aurangabad Caves : The almost forgotten caves of Aurangabad lie just outside
the city. Excavated between the 2nd and 6th century AD, they reflect tantric
influences in their iconography and architectural designs. In all there
are nine caves which are mainly viharas (monasteries).
Daulatabad Fort : Once known as 'Devgiri', this magnificent 12th century
fortress stands on a hill just 13 km. from Aurangabad. It was given the
name Daulatabad, the 'city of fortune', by Muhammad Tughlaq, Sultan of
Delhi. Initially a Yadav stronghold, it passed through the hands of several
dynasties in the Deccan. One of the world's best preserved fort of medieval
times, surviving virtually unaltered, Daulatabad yet displays the character
that made it invincible.
