Synopsis

Lost for 14 centuries, the eighth Wonder of the World! Imagine the excitement of a British officer, while tiger hunting in 1819, stumbled over a remnant of ancient India. Hidden in a secluded valley of the Sahyadri Mountains of Western Central India, the Ajanta cave system preserved for posterity its wondrous secrets: thousands of breathtaking paintings and sculptures that provide a vivid insight into the Golden Age of India.
