The Udayagiri and Khandagiri caves are partly natural and partly man-made caves located in the city of Bhubaneswar in the state of Odisha. These caves were built during the Century BC. The caves provide an evidence of the continued belief in Jainism in Odisha in ancient times as these caves have been carved out as residential blocks for Jain monks during the reign of king Kharvela. There are 18 caves in Udayagiri and 15 caves in Khandagiri. These caves are situated on two adjacent hills known by the same name. These caves include Hathi Gumpha, Amanta Gumpha, Ganesh Gumpha, Jaya Vijaya Gumpha etc.
