Solution

The correct option is B Ellora
The Kailash temple is one of the largest rock-cut ancient Hindu temples located in Ellora, a religious complex consisting of 34 rock-cut monasteries and temples. It was built by King Krishna I in AD 760 to represent Mt Kailasa (Kailash), Shiva’s Himalayan abode. The temple was carved from top to bottom with only simple hammers and chisels.
