BAGH CAVES WITH WALL PAINTINGS AND BLOCK PRINTS
Bagh Caves had been on my list of things to get to visit since the time I concentrated on Indian Art at the National Museum in Delhi. I actually recollect unimposing Dr. Anupa Pande disclosing to us How to Read Ajanta Paintings one day with her attention on the significant artistic creations and Jataka stories. The following day she talked with regards to these caverns while likewise letting us know that there is basically nothing left on the dividers of the caverns now. Be that as it may, the works of art have been painstakingly eliminated and safeguarded at the site gallery. I have visited Ajanta a couple of times, yet these caverns stayed slippery all of the time.
I needed to visit them last time when I was going on the Queen's Trail in MP yet couldn't fit them in the schedule. This time while going to Mandu Festival, I didn't design it however an opportunity to meet Bagh caves had come. Thus, very quickly, I was inquired as to whether I need to visit and my response was a moment 'Yes'. Inside the following 10 minutes, I was in the vehicle heading towards Dhar, the nearest town for the caverns.

These caverns are additionally man-made caverns on the banks of the Bhagini stream.
