Amazing place that gives you an impressive glance of what were the roots of Indian culture. It's a perfect place to go with kids, as paths are easy to follow, if you don't mind several stairs. Monkeys everywhere, it's hard to realize it's in the middle of the city. We rented a car that waited for us outside the caves from the Hotel, and worked smoothly.

Led by great guide naturalist Mehul Dedhia, we enjoyed a day hiking in the Sanjay Gandhi Natl Park. The site is a sprawling group of over 100 caves spread across a hill. There are lots of steps if you want to see many of the caves, but well worth the hike to see a mix of natural and carved caves, Buddhist carvings, ornate columns, and sculptures. Well worth a visit and within a half to full day excursion.
