Udayagiri and Khandagiri Caves, formerly called Kattaka Caves or Cuttack caves, are partly natural and partly artificial caves of archaeological, historical and religious importance near the city of Bhubaneswar in Odisha, India. The caves are situated on two adjacent hills, Udayagiri and Khandagiri mentioned as Kumari Parvata in the Hathigumpha inscription. They have a number of finely and ornately carved caves built during the 1st century BCE. It is believed that most of these caves were carved out as residential blocks for Jaina monks during the reign of King Kharavela. Udayagiri means "Sunrise Hill" and has 18 caves while Khandagiri has 15 caves.

  • Die Udayagiri- und Khandagiri-Höhlen bei Bhubaneswar im Bundesstaat Odisha gehören zu den ältesten Höhlenklöstern Indiens. Der Komplex sollte nicht verwechselt werden mit der etwa 60 km in nordöstlicher Richtung entfernten buddhistischen Klosteranlage Udayagiri. (de)
