Sonbhandar Caves




Sonbhandar Caves are two strange caves located at Rajgir in Nalanda District. Hollowed out of a single massive rock, these cave chambers have separate doorways, leading to the treasury of king Bimbisara, which is still undamaged. Inscriptions on the wall in the Sankhlipi or shell script give the clues to open the doorway.
