The Karla Caves is a group of ancient rock-cut caves that traces its history back to the 2nd century BCE. Chaitya Hall (Prayer Hall) is the prime attraction of these caves.

Alongside that, there is a prayer hall, stupas, and a waterfall that adds charm to its overall beauty.
Ekvira Devi Temple
Lying a stroll away from Karla and Bhaja Caves is the Ekvira Devi Temple, which is a revered Hindu temple dedicated to Goddess Ekvira. It is an important pilgrimage site for locals and attracts a huge influx of people during special occasions. To reach the temple, devotees will have to climb a few steps.

While nature admirers, bird watchers, and camping lovers can spend some time at Visapur Fort and Pavana Lake, adventure seekers can take a day off for the Della Adventure Park in Lonavala to try their hand at zip lining, rock climbing, ATV rides, etc. Several other recreational activities include paragliding, cycling, and waterfall rappelling.
