Stop At: Udayagiri Caves, Near Vidisha Centre, Vidisha India

The caves possess all the distinctive features that gave Gupta art its unique vitality, vigour and richness of expression; the beautifully moulded capitals, the treatment of the intercolumniation, the design of the entranceway and the system of continuing the architrave as a string-course around the structures are very worth a visit.
