Aurangabad, better known as the City of Gates or the Heart of Maharashtra, is one of the 35districts of Maharashtra, covering an area of 10,100 km², out of which 141.1 km² is urban areaand 9,958.9 km² is rural. Named after the Mughal Emperor Aurangzeb, it means “Built by theThrones”

Nicknamed the Historical City, it was founded in 1610 A.D By Malik Ambar, Prime Minister ofAhmadnagar in the village Khadki. Malik Ambar had a strong love for architecture and that ishow Khadki grew into an architectural hub and a populous city. When Malik Ambar died in1626, he was succeeded by his son Fateh Khan who named it Fatehnagar. In 1633,Fatehnagar came under the possession of the Mughal, and in 1653, when Prince Aurangzebwasn’t appointed the viceroy of the Deccan, he took Fatehnagar as his capital and renamed itAurangabad. Aurangabad was a part of princely state of Hyderabad until 1956. In 1956 itbecame a part of newly formed bilingual Bombay state and in 1960 it became a part ofMaharashtra state.

Aurangabad, one of the oldest cities in Maharashtra holds true to its traditions and culture.Although predominantly a Hindu state, a large part of the population also follows Islam. Theculture in Aurangabad is taken after Hyderabad. It still retains a lot of the flavour and charm ofthe Muslim culture in the old city, which is especially reflected through the language and cuisineof the locals. Aurangabad cuisine is heavily influenced by Mughlai and Hyderabad cuisine.Meat cooked in spices and herbs as well as sweets play a major role in the local cuisine. NaanQalia, a concoction of meat and varied spices originated in Aurangabad is a must try while inthe city.

The city is brimming with famous historical attractions, like Bibi Ka Maqbara, Ajantha Caves,Ellora Caves, which have been named UNESCO World Heritage Sites, Jama Masjid,Panchakki, and the 52 gates in Aurangabad, to name a few. There are also a number oftemples, mosques, museums, and even some gardens to explore.

Shopping for local textiles such as Paithani and Himroo, which are considered verycharacteristic and distinctive from the rest, along with ancient art forms such as Bidriware is amust in the old city. Streets like Nirala Bazaar situated in the heart of the city, Connaught Place,Paithan Gate, Osmanapura and Aurangapura are other major shopping areas in Aurangabad.

Aurangabad is well-connected by roadways, rail and airways. The Chikkalthana Airport, now adomestic and international airport, is 12 km from the city, while Aurangabad Railway Stationcomes under South Central Railway and is connected to Mumbai and Hyderabad on eithersides and connects to major cities like Mumbai, Hyderabad, Nagpur, Pune, Kolkata, Delhi, etc.Also, there are good bus services available from most places to Aurangabad.

A historic city"Aurangabad is one of the best tourist destinations in the state of Maharashtra. World heritagesites, Ellora and Ajanta Caves, are located near this city. Bibi ka Makbara and Daultabad Fortare also worth a visit.Ellora caves are known for its sculptures. Kailash temple built in 757 AD by Rashtrakuta Kings,built by 10 generations for over 200 years, is an amazing sculpting miracle, a single big rockcarved into a beautiful Shiva temple depicting lots of stories related with Lord Shiva. Elloracaves are around 30 km from Aurangabad city, a 40 minutes journey by cab.Grishneswar temple is one of the twelve Jyotirlingas, dedicated to Lord Shiva. Gentlemen arerequired to remove their Shirts, while entering the main shrine to worship the Shiva Linga. This

temple lies just beside the Ellora Caves.Ajanta Caves too have an importance of their own being spectacular in the field of paintingsand arts of the ancient Indian history. Ajanta Caves are around 100 km from Aurangabad city, ajourney of around two and half hours by cab.Bibi ka Makbara is a failed attempt at replicating the Taj Mahala. Even then this place is worth avisit.Aurangabad is not that a big a city. Finding a good restaurant to eat could be a problemespecially for North Indians. I went to a restaurant called Naivedya, in Basil Nagar nearAurangabad railway station and found it to be very good. Food, desserts and service weregood. Costs about 2000 rupees for 4-5 people.I visited this place in monsoons in July and found the climate to be excellent for roamingaround. There was rain sometimes and the weather was mostly cloudy with cool winds, apt fortourism. If you are visiting during this time, don't forget your raincoat or umbrella." - Bhanupratap Singh, , Jul 4, 2016

A more developed city-Aurangabad"Aurangabad is a developed city in all respects. The main public roads in the city are widenedbut cleanliness is lagging in the main bus stand area especially near the bridge. The Sidharthpark & zoo is working near the bus stand and it is maintained well. The main attraction is BeebiKa Maqbara, the tomb of Dairas Banu Beegum, wife of Aurangaseb, constructed by their son in1678. It is Taj Mahal model and is known as MiniTaj Mahal. The entire area is very large & it ismaintained by Archeological Survey of India collecting Rs/- 10/-from visitors through entrytickets. The location is 3 km away from city & auto service is available. On the way to Ellora fromAurangabad at a distance of 8 kms I visited at Daultabad, the Deogiri fort & palaces. Thispalace was once the capital of India during the time of Tughlaq. This fort is a visiting place fortourists since it is historically important, The palace is on the top of a mountain peak & entranceis through the inside of the peak. At Ellora which is 29 km apart from city I visited the UNESCOheritage site Ellora caves. Total 34 caves are there out of which 1 to 16 is on one side of bridge& 17 to 34 on the other side. At the end Jain temple is also seen. These caves are rock cutarchitecture excavated out of the vertical face of the Charanandri hills.. These cave temples arevery attractive fascinating & deserves appreciation to the architectural talents exercised throughthe various sculptures. Near to the caves is Grishneswar temple which is the last (12th )jyothirlinga temple in India. All amenities & facilities are available at Ellora for visiting tourists.Another important attraction of Aurangabad is the UNESCO heritage site Ajantha caves whichare 100 kms away from the city. Near to entrance gate Ajantha Visiting centre owned byMaharashtra Tourist Development Corporation also functions. Enough transport buses areavailable to reach this location. Charge Rs/-130/- I also visited Sirdhi which is 104 kms awayfrom Aurangabad & got darshan of Sirdhi Sai. . Bus service is readily available to this temple.Tourists visiting Aurangabad must visit these historically important places." - ThulaseedharanAchary, Punalur, Nov 19, 2015

Good destination for chilling out"Decent restaurant are available in the city, and Ajanta Ellora caves are the first attraction of thevisitors. I found the city comparatively cleaner than Mumbai at least:) It has good historic places

worth visiting. The places are from the time of Aurangzeb. Hence, the place is named asAurangabad. Some of the places worth seeing are as follows, Ellora- is just 30 km fromAurangabad. The place is well known for its carved caves. Garden - with Musical Fountainshow Paithan - is also close to Aurangabad and it is really a house of real traditional sareescalled Paithani. The sarees are made of pure gold and silver zari. The ladies take 2 months to 2years to hand-weave one sari. Depending on the work to be done on the saree. Bibi kaMakbara- can be called as a photo copy of the original Taj Mahal. Was worth looking at itthough. Aurangzeb's kabar Daulatabad Paan Chakki - is an amazing place. It has a grindstonechakki that operates on the mechanism of hydro power. The grindstone is going on and onsince years. With the powerful force of water. This is a classic example of intelligent engineeringimplemented and demonstrated by the great people lived ages ago. Some of the good Hotelsto stay in area. Hotel Atithi - 3 star and Hotel Ravi Kiran - economical. Some good restaurantsare That Baat and Bhoj. They serve traditional Rajasthani food. Overall. Aurangabad is a goodplace worth visiting once." - Himanshu Burewar, Hyderabad, Nov 7, 2015

A small hidden jewel in Maharashtra"Aurangabad has many historic places that you should visit. Any History lover or Buddha, ShivaDevotee should visit this place. I visited the place in August which is a off season for tourists.The season to visit is from October to May.

The place is famous for Ajanta - Ellora caves, Bibi ka Maqbara, Daulatabad Fort, GrishneshwarJyotirlinga Temple and many other places. Ajanta caves require a whole day to visit. WhereasEllora caves, Daulatabad Fort, Grishneshwar Temple, Bhadra Maruti, Aurangabad Caves, Bibika Maqbara, Aurangzeb Tomb etc. can be visited within a day. So plan carefully before you go.If you are a Shiva devotee then Grishneshwar temple is a must for you. Also you should knowthat guys will have to remove their shirt before entering the temple. Ladies can go inside withoutany hassles. Panchakki is also a good place but less known.

While visiting this magnificent city, Go to Tara Panwala near Gopal Cultural Hall AKA GopalTea. This place is known for its variety of pan. Starting price from Rs. 10 till Rs. 5000. We triedalmost 10-12 pan during our 2 days visit.

We spent a whole day for Ajanta caves. Its on the way to Jalgaon. Another day to visit Elloracaves, Grishneshwar Temple, Bhadra Maruti, Daulatabad Fort, Bibi ka Maqbara, AurangabadCaves, Tomb of Aurangzeb etc.

This a worldwide popular destination for Ajanta Ellora caves. It's a small hidden jewel inMaharashtra that you must visit." - Nikunj Goradia, Mumbai, Aug 31, 2015
