DAY 191- DAULATABAD



191) WEDNESDAY, 4 JANUARY 1978 : 24KMS. - DAULATABAD
 

From ELLORA we continued towards  the direction to BOMBAY in the evening. Again we had to find parking ramps on the road near DAULATABAD so that we will not have problem to start the engine  tomorrow  morning.

WIKIPEDIA
DAULATABAD - The site had been occupied since at least 100 BCE, and now has remains of Buddhist caves similar to those at Ajanta and Ellora.
 
The city is said to have been founded c. 1187 by Bhillama V, a prince who renounced his allegiance to the Chalukyas and established the power of the Yadava dynasty in the west.
