Barabar Caves
The Barabar and Nagarjuni Hills are situated about 40 km from Bodh Gaya. There are
seven rock-cut caves here, of which four are in the Barallar Hills. Barabar Caves carvings bear
the details about Buddha's life.
Famous writer E M Forster had visited these caves and was so inspired by the curious
echoes ricocheting off their inner walls that these caves formed a cnucial landmark in his celerated work, A Passage to India, albeit under another name, Malabar caves.
