Located in the midst of Sanjay Gandhi National Park, Kanheri Caves are a collection of 109 Buddhist caves which dates back to the 1st Century BC. It gets its name from the Sanskrit word ‘Krishnagiri’ meaning black mountain as these caves have been carved from the basaltic rock.
Monsoon is the best time to visit the caves, when the park is awash in greenery and the view from the caves are especially spectacular. Be sure to wear comfortable shoes and clothes when visiting the caves, and we suggest you carry insect repellent with you as well.
