Pandav Leni, Nashik – A Complete Travel Guide Pandav Leni, Nashik, also known as the Pandavleni Caves or Trirashmi Caves, is one of the most important ancient heritage sites in Maharashtra. Located on Trirashmi Hill, around 8 km from Nashik city, the caves offer a fascinating combination of ancient Buddhist heritage, rock-cut architecture, history, and panoramic views. The caves were created more than 2,000 years ago and were used by Buddhist monks as places for meditation, residence, learning, and religious activities.
