Sorry for replying late, I wasn't in town. <b>Ram,</b> Yes, the things have definitely changed in terms of commercialization and poor maintenance of the caves. :) Only natural light sifts thru some places, else inside the caves there is no light. The sculptures are in quite bad shape as well. Haven't been to Manori yet, it is on my list. Sorry for replying late, I wasn't in town. Patrick,

The caves are a sheer beauty and are instilled with a rich history. Would eagerly look forward to your account on the caves. Recently I visited the Manoribel Resort, off Manori. The ferry travel to the other shore though very short, is enchanting. To me the place looked like, a miniaturised Goa, embedded in Mumbai (though the culture is absolutely different, being a part of the city). May be sometimes you would talk about this small place.
