Explanation:

The Kailasa temple (Cave 16) is the largest of the 34 Buddhist, Jain and Hindu cave temples and monasteries are known collectively as the Ellora Caves, ranging for over 2 kilometers (1.5 miles) along the sloping basalt cliff at the site. Most of the excavation of the temple is generally attributed to the eighth-century Rashtrakuta king Krishna I (r. c. 756 – 773), with some elements completed later.
