About the Event
Udayagiri Caves have sculptures in a beautifully refined style. Built in the Gupta period, it also houses possibly the oldest representation of the elephant god Ganesha - dating back to about the fifth century CE. With some of the oldest Hindu temples, the set of 20 caves are a great spot to see how religious representations have evolved over time.
