Sutonda Fort & Buddhist Caves, Kanhadesh (MH) - Fortress in Nayagaon - Aurangabad, India

Aha what a hidden beauty it is, the fort is split into by breaking an entire mountain into 2 and than creating a complete rock carved entrance. As it was nearing sunset we hurriedly completed it. We were also warned about a leopard in the vicinity which ultimately did gave us warnings while the descent.

This is small hill fort also know as Fort of Naigaon named after Naigaon village at the base. Here we observe lot of water tanks carved within rock of fort. Easy way leads to summit of fort from east side edge with steps carved in rock. Its entrance is like tunnel carved in rock. We also find small lake on fort. There are many cave like rock carved water filled places seen on this fort. Fort is located at West side of Ajanta-satmala range. In West of this fort village Banoti is connected by Road to other towns of District. Banoti is 3 kilometers away from fort.

All these fort which are located in Ajanta range have historical importance. Govt must pay attention here and archaeological survey is required. I hope Maharashtra govt would be attention here.
