Kadia Dungar caves

The rock-cut caves feature stone lion pillars, interconnected chambers, and Buddhist architectural elements carved directly into the mountainside during ancient times.

Dating from the 1st to 2nd century CE, these caves display Buddhist architectural influences and contain numerous stone carvings indicating monastic activities.

The caves incorporate Buddhist symbols, including footprints of Buddha, demonstrating the strong presence of Buddhism in Gujarat during the early centuries.

Located near Zazpor village, visitors reach the caves through a marked path from the entrance gate, with parking facilities available at ground level.

The site includes a brick stupa at the base of the hill, combining structural construction with rock-cut architecture in one archaeological complex.
