So much history within these walls. Thank you for posting.

Good light and textures. Another title might be "the light beyond".

Nice perspective. Beautiful capture.

Well; the doorway is one of three that leads you into the cave. Different people say different things about the stone. Hindus believe that the cave belonged to followers of their religion. They say that the stone was once a sculpture of the holy bull "Nandhi" that you find in every temple of Lord Shiva. I'm trying to find out more.

Thankyou Girish. Does the stone at the doorway have a function?
