Khapara Kodiya Caves
The Khapra Kodiya Caves are part of the Junagadh Buddhist Cave Group and are considered the oldest among them. These caves date back to the 3rd-4th century BCE, during the reign of Emperor Ashoka. They are also known as Khangar Mahal and are located along the edge of the ancient Sudarshan Lake, just outside the Uparkot Fort in Junagadh.
The caves were carved into living rock and served as monastic settlements for Buddhist monks. They feature unique architectural elements, such as water tanks and an L-shaped residence. Over time, cracks in the caves allowed water to seep in, making them unusable, and the monks eventually moved to Maharashtra to carve more elaborate structures.
