The Kanheri Caves consists of a
group of rock-cut monuments
that are located in the north of
Borivali on the western
outskirts of Mumbai. Found
within the forests of the Sanjay
Gandhi National Park, the caves
are 6 km from the main gate
and 7 km from Borivali Station.
The Kanheri Caves demonstrate
the Buddhist influence on the
art and culture of India. The
word Kanheri is derived from
the Sanskrit word Krishnagiri,
which means black
mountain.They were chiseled
out of a massive basaltic
rock.These caves date from the
first century BCE to the 10th
century CE. One hundred and
nine caves have been carved
from the basalt.
