Barabar Caves - Barabar Hills Bihar

Barabar Caves are situated in Barabar Hills, at a distance of approximately 30 km to the north of Gaya, Bihar. There are total seven rock-cut caves here, of which four are in the Barabar hills. Dating back to the 200 BC, these caves were constructed during the reign of Emperor Ashoka, for the Ajivikas. Carved out of a huge granite rock, these caves look as if they are cut with a laser. The caves were designed in a way that they look like wood.
