Mogalrajapuram Caves
The Mogalrajapuram Caves are renowned for three temples, which are said to be constructed in the 5th century.
One of the temples in the cave has an amazing carving of Ardhanariswara and is supposed to be one-of-its-kind in Southern India.
The temples have beautifully carved images of Lord Vinayaka and Lord Shiva in the Nataraja appearance.
The caves are located about 5 kilometres from Vijayawada and although in ruins, the Mogalrajapuram Caves offer a unique opportunity to take in the beautiful treasure trove of carvings and sculptures.
The intricate craftsmanship and finesse is visible in every sculpture and carving of the cave temples.
One of the caves also has an overhanging cornice complete with artificial windows.
