They contain Buddhist sculptures and relief carvings, paintings and inscriptions, dating from the 1st century CE to the 10th century CE. Kanheri comes from the Sanskrit Krishnagiri, which means “black mountain”. The site is on a hillside, and is accessible via rock-cut steps. For a histroy enthusiast, a great place to be. The caves a wonderfully carved in stone and definitely worth a visit. The story goes that Avalokiteshvara was so pained by the sorrow of people that his head burst into 11 pieces.
The Buddha turned each piece into a head in itself. Thus Avalokiteshvara came to have 11 heads. The oldest stone expression of this is found in the Kanheri Caves. P.S. – One can opt for share taxis from SGNP gate to Kanheri (₹50 one way) instead of hiking as well.
