After you're done exploring the Ellora Caves, go to the Daulatabad Fort, a beautiful castle built on a hill in the 1200s. The past of the fort is very interesting, and the views of the countryside from there are breathtaking. You should visit the Aurangabad Caves in the evening. These are a group of 12 Buddhist caves from the 6th and 7th centuries. Even though these caves aren't as well known as the Ajanta and Ellora Caves, you should still go see them because they have beautiful paintings and a calm atmosphere.

The Ajanta Caves are a UNESCO World Heritage Site that you should see first thing in the morning. Fans of Buddhist art will love the beautiful carvings and drawings that were cut into the rocks in these caves. Go back to Aurangabad city and see the Bibi Ka Maqbara, which is also called the "Taj Mahal of the Deccan," after you've seen the Ajanta Caves. This beautiful tomb was built to honour Emperor Aurangzeb's wife and is a must-see in Aurangabad. In the evening, head to Panchakki, which is an old water mill that was used to grind grain for the pilgrims who visited the nearby dargah (tomb) of Baba Shah Musafir. The Panchakki is a unique and interesting site that is worth a visit.
