The Bagh Caves || Archaeologically Speaking S01E01 || WISHWOOD ACADEMY || Vlog February 12, 23

Watch the first episode of Archaeologically Speaking where we've covered the whole place along with the brief details and cinematic shots regarding the Caves. The Bagh Caves are a group of nine rock-cut monuments, situated among the southern slopes of the Vindhyas in Bagh town of Dhar district in Madhya Pradesh state in central India. These monuments are located at a distance of 97 km from Dhar town. These are renowned for mural paintings by master painters of ancient India. The use of the word "cave" is a bit of a misnomer, since these are not natural, but instead examples of Indian rock-cut architecture. The Bagh caves, like those at Ajanta, were excavated by master craftsmen on perpendicular sandstone rock face of a hill on the far bank of a seasonal stream, the Baghani. Buddhist in inspiration, of the nine caves, only five have survived. All of them are 'viharas' or resting places of monks monasteries having quadrangular plan. A small chamber, usually at the back, forms the 'chaitya', the prayer hall. Most significant of these five extant caves is the Cave 4, commonly known as the Rang Mahal (Palace of Colors). The Bagh Caves were quarried in the 5th-6th century AD, in the very late stages of Buddhism in India, and long after most of the Indian Buddhist Caves had been built, many of them since the 2nd or 1st centuries BCE. They are believed to have been built during the 5th-7th century. Archaeological Survey of India has restored the place over 17 years. The paintings on the wall and ceilings of the Viharas of Bagh, the fragments of which are still visible in Cave 3 and Cave 4 (remnants seen also in Caves 2, 5 and 7), were executed in tempera. Cave 2 is the best preserved cave, also known as "Pandava Cave" These paintings are materialistic rather than spiritualistic. Characteristics of paintings are like those of Ajanta Caves. The ground prepared was a reddish-brown gritty and thick mud plaster, laid out on the walls and ceilings. Over the plaster, lime-priming was done, on which these paintings were executed. Some of the most beautiful paintings were on the walls of the portico of Cave 4. To prevent further loss of the values of Indian classical art, most paintings were carefully removed in 1982 and today can be seen in Archaeological Museum of Gwalior. #travelvlog #Archaeologicallyspeaking #school #students #madhyapradesh #madhyapradeshtourism #madhyapradeshgovernment #wishwoodacademybarwani #wishwood #madhyapradeshnews #barwani #archaeologicalsurveyofindia #Archaeological #worldheritagesite #unesco #unescoworldheritage #unescoglobalgeopark #unescoworldheritagesite #archaelogicallywishwood #exploration #wanderers #roaming #wandererstv #travelling #travelvlogs #worldtourism #tourism #schooltrip #trip #schooltour #tour #schoolstudents #indiangovernment #governmentofindia #englishconversation #englishspeaking #english All the Music Rights Reserved to the Original Copyright Owner of it.
