Binnayaga caves, Buddhist cave temple in Jhalawar district, India.

The site contains twenty laterite caves extending from east to west, with each cave facing south along a linear arrangement.

The caves, constructed between 700-900 AD, formed part of a larger Buddhist monastic network that included nearby complexes at Kholvi and Hathyagaud.

The caves include a stupa-shaped sanctuary with a chaitya featuring windows, reflecting the Buddhist architectural traditions of ancient India.

Located 8 miles from Kolvi caves and accessible through Binnayaga village, the site maintains regular visiting hours for archaeological research.

The cave complex features an unusual two-winged structure surrounding an open courtyard with a vaulted ceiling lobby and central door.
