    Very nice pictures, Madhu. I only knew of the Ajanta Ellora caves in Maharashtra but did not knew about Nashik. If I visit Mumbai sometime will try to visit. Looking forward to reading your other posts.

    Hi Deep,
    Thanks for visiting our blog. Yes, Nashik is definitely worth a visit. It’s very accessible from Mumbai – There are buses and share taxis running between the 2 cities.
    Cheers!
