Ellora caves are considered to be the most ancient, it is 34 stone cut caves and also an ancient temple. This temple is not built by joining stones like our other temples but it is built by cutting the same single rock from top to bottom.
If we see any other caves of the world, it is made by cut from outside to inside, which is 'cut-in monolith technique'.
But to make Kailash Temple, the rock has been cut from top to bottom, which is called 'cut-out monolith technique'. Which is very difficult & complex process.

According to research this temple is not normal. There is a secret cave under the temple but common people not allowed there. A tunnel that leads to the underground city. According to archeologists, to build this by cutting a rock, 4lac tons of stone must have been cut from here.
We can also see 'Water draining system' for rain water in this Temple.
