Historical Importance of Monument : a large rock-hewn image of the Buddha had been crudely modelled with plaster to turn it into an image of Ganesha. There are seven Buddhist rock-cut caves situated on the bank of Baghini river. These consists of Viharas and shrines. There are several sculptures of Buddha and Boddhisattvas and was once covered lavishly with paintings of which there are some traces now. (C.5th 6th Century AD). The Bagh Caves are a group of rock-cut monuments. The caves were excavated on sandstone rock on the bank of the Baghani during the rule of the Satvahanas. These monasteries have a quadrangular plan with a small chamber, usually at the back, holding the chaitya or the prayer hall. Most significant of these five caves is the Cave 4, commonly known as the Rang Mahal (Palace of Colors) which once had painting executed in tempera. Some traces can still be seen today. Most of the paintings were removed in 1982 using a complex process and can be seen at the archaeological museum on the site.
