Besides being a port it was school of art also.

The carvings in this cave are related to Krishna where one can see a Buddhist monk milking a cow.
A Good imagination.

I think it is Durga riding on Lion ?
A shephard in rains..
This Krishna lifting the Goverdhan on his finger.
How these rocks were carved into these different styles ?
How much time they have taken ?
