To get to Ajanta was a three hour shared taxi trip over a mostly under construction road. It was worth the trip. The temples are carved out of the basalt canyon walls in a steep bend of the river canyon. It is all bhuddhist temples. It's main claim to fame is the surviving paintings on the walls and ceilings. It was a little congested but that is India.
Well, Boris, WE braved the minus 37 weather to watch the start of the Quest in very foggy weather. Couldn't stay til the end. Too cold. Quite a contrast from your erotic art temples!! Take care!
