The story

The Khed Caves, also called the Bouddh Caves, are a group of ancient Buddhist caves in the town of Khed, Maharashtra.

The main cave is a large vihara with three cells where monks lived, and an oblong room at the back holding a stupa. Four smaller caves make up the rest of the group. The caves are now in a rather run-down state.
