坐完一晚夜車，終於開始aurangabad周邊之旅了，落車時大概凌晨四點幾鐘，酒店居然派車o黎接我o地？﹗我o地book o既係成張information sheet入面最平o個間o黎o架喎？原來係咁~佢免費送我o地去酒店之後問我o地要唔要之後坐佢架車去玩~哈，但我o地book o左local tour啦嘛~所以拒絕了~況且都唔知信唔信得過~
酒店D職員係大堂度打地鋪瞓覺﹗有個人捽捽眼咁招呼我o地，估唔到五點幾都可以俾間房我o地喎，咁好o既(後來先知道佢計每24小時收一日房租，所以我o地「名義上」住o左兩晚o羅~)？個tour 8:30am先集合，我o地拿拿聲洗個面，瞓多一覺先~
帶o左要求酒店幫我o地預備o既lunch box，我o地行過去集合地點，原來係坐一架大旅遊巴去o既，三十個團友之中，一半係印度人，一半係外國人，當中又有白人、又有黃皮膚，不過呢，中國人就只有我o地五個喇~
搭車途中望出車窗外，呢D裝束…似唔似上次去婚禮時D人幫stanley同kelvin著o個D？
搭車都搭好耐呀，ajanta caves離aurangabad有三個幾鐘車程，於是我o地係車上呼呼大睡﹗stanley同angela慘D o羅~因為我o地被安排坐車o既右邊幾個位，而路線又係向北行，所以佢o地o既右邊身係咁俾猛烈o既太陽曬住呀~唔開窗唔開窗簾又唔得喎，因為non-AC，唔開就冇風，就會勁熱﹗佢o地落車時話…右手曬到黑過左手﹗
搭車o既一個中途站，大家可以落去買下飲品、食下o野、去下廁所~
去到以為先食lunch啦，但因為印度人習慣晏食lunch，所以我o地行o左caves先~好在可以係旅遊局o既餐廳放低我o地D飯盒~天氣真係好熱好熱好熱呀﹗真係feel到有35度以上﹗太陽毫不留情﹗勁曬﹗我唔記得帶遮呀，好在有stanley同埋kelvin借俾我o者~
ajanta o既石窟o既分佈~
遠遠望過去D caves~
ajanta o既石窟全部都係佛教石窟，導遊同我o地講解，建築主要有兩種，分別係修道院同埋廟宇，而家學識了就會一睇就分得出﹗有幾個石窟係唔準用閃光燈影相o架，因為牆壁上面有好多好珍貴o既、歷史好悠久o既壁畫~導遊同我o地講解上面一個個o既故事~石窟除o左古老、有藝術價值之外，仲有咩特別？犀利咯﹗所有建築都係由一座山o既一舊石頭度雕刻出o黎﹗以前D人只用好簡單o既工具???﹗好恐怖呀~咁就?到一座座咁宏偉o既建築出o黎了﹗
洞入面o既壁畫~
精飾o既雕刻~hee，影到其他團友呢~
呢D係以前D人畫壁畫時用o既調色板~
好熱呀好熱呀~
cave 26有呢個大臥佛~
大家都累了~
仲要行番過去落車o既地方呢~
ajanta石窟總共有三十幾個，導遊帶我o地行o左最重要o個幾個之後，有少少自由時間再逛逛，跟住食埋飯就開始回程lu~
都有D擔心帶o黎o既飯盒會唔會變壞o架，好在…食完都冇肚子痛﹗Rs65一份o既餐盒包括chicken biryani、chicken cutlet、chicken sandwich同埋一條蕉~呢度係咁o架，雞就全套都係雞，veg就全套都係veg﹗non-veg餐的話，點解唔可以有菜有肉呢？lunch box味道都唔錯，係食得忽忙o左D o羅~
臨上車時買到了postcard，唉，講價真係好辛苦呀﹗
我o地番到酒店先食dinner呀，裝修到好似樓上cafe o既酒店餐廳居然唔太貴喎~食o既都係一般度度食到o既印度菜~食飽飽之後o個度仲有D games添呀，我o地玩o左層層疊﹗哈，我o地玩時仲吸引到附近?D遊客o既注意呀~(梗係啦，你o地咁嘈~)
aurangabad呢間hotel shree maya好舒服呀，無論房間、服務都好過我o地mumbai呢間多多聲(但平過pals hotel﹗)﹗不愧係印度旅遊局推薦o既旅館﹗
今日買水被騙了﹗以為1.5L係平時o既2L，所以覺得Rs20係正常價錢，哎吔吔，買貴了﹗
玩層層疊~圈住的…沾了餸汁的木塊﹗呵呵~
stanley o既傑作o羅~
待續
前往其他印度旅遊blog
24小時當收一日房租都好公道啊！不過如果剛剛超時…感覺上又似乎唔係咁抵！
旅遊區啲野貴小小都無法啦！冇理由托住成箱水去行呢！
層層叠都玩到沾餸汁？果然好投入呢！

Re mak sai:
I think this policy is quite good ga, not too restricted by time le. We can then take a brief rest after we got there so early in the morning. I think it did worth ga la coz at that we we really needed the sleep.
It's ok to have it a bit more expensive ge but we thought that we were cheated ma~
Haha…because the dishes were not taken away yet. But the wooden block falled into it when we played!!!
Re ga je:
Yes. The caves are really ancient and they are so different from what we can see in China. A new experience lo~
It is the restaurant in our hotel. Not expensive ga. Just like any other restaurant outside. Each of us about HK$12-15 (something like that). But it looks like an "upstair cafe", isn't it?
洞窟看來保存得還不錯。周遭的環境似乎頗荒涼，也不見甚麼賣紀念品的攤檔呢！

Re爹爹:
保存得不錯是真的，但「荒涼」就唔係了，因為石窟o個度唔係隨便俾人入去o架，我o地由aurangabad市區出發o既旅遊巴都要係石窟外4公里o既地方停低，然後再轉接駁巴士~咁樣都係對石窟o既一種「保育」吧，唔會俾D叫賣o既人係度嘈~所以一搭車出去就勁多人賣o野o羅~
Hi Rita, Happy to see your blog, Do u remember the name of your Hotel ? and How much is it? Did u have enough time to take photo and go though the caves? Should I rent a car and visit there? Thanks! 🙂

Re loch: 你好﹗好開心你捧場我個blog呀~ 我check番了，我哋嗰陣住嗰間酒店叫做Hotel Shree Maya~ http://www.tripadvisor.com/Hotel_Review-g297649-d1200615-Reviews-Hotel_Shree_Maya-Aurangabad_Maharashtra.html 酒店應該冇自己的網頁吧？但我都唔係太記得好唔好lu~ 個tour都ok o架，都夠時間行呀、睇嘢、影相咁~ 包架車都可以o既，不過一定要講價囉，同埋如果你哋人多啲就抵啲囉，不過join tour o既好處係可以聽多啲典故，因為一般啲旅遊書都講得唔多~
