About Udayagiri Caves

The Udayagiri Caves are a group of rock-cut shrines near Vidisha in Madhya Pradesh, carved in the early 5th century during the reign of the Gupta king Chandragupta II. They hold some of the oldest surviving Hindu cave sculpture in India.

The most famous is the great relief of Bhagwan Vishnu as Varaha, the boar avatar, lifting the earth goddess Bhudevi from the waters. The first view here is taken in front of it.

उदयगिरि की गुफाएँ मध्य प्रदेश के विदिशा के पास स्थित हैं। इन्हें पाँचवीं शताब्दी के आरंभ में गुप्त सम्राट चंद्रगुप्त द्वितीय के काल में चट्टान काटकर बनाया गया था। यहाँ भगवान विष्णु के वराह अवतार की विशाल प्रतिमा प्रसिद्ध है।
