Rajasthan
Madhya Pradesh
Maharashtra
Jammu and Kashmir
Odisha

2 of the famous places in Maharashtra are Elora and Ajanta. Ajanta is 4th and Elora is fifth among the oldest places in the world believe to contain caves that are nearly 7000 years old plus, it is also amongst the least polluted cities in the world. There are many places to visit in these cities.

Ajanta caves are closed on Monday because on Monday the caves are cleaned and the same with Elora. Elora caves have its cleaning day on Tuesday. So if you are going to these places please take my advice to not visit Ajanta on Monday and Elora on Tuesday.
