One of Indiaβs greatest monuments, the #KailasaTemple, #Ellora. This astonishing temple, carved from solid rock, was built by King Krishna I in AD 76.
Three huge trenches were bored into the sheer cliff face, a process that entailed removing 200,000 tonnes of rock by hammer and chisel, before the temple could begin to take shape and its remarkable sculptural decoration could be added.
