This is a place called "Surya Pahar" located in Assam, India.
The name 'Sri Surya Pahar' implies that the site was associated with the cult of sun (Surya) worship,
wherein "Pahar" means "mountain". In the photographs are seen Buddhist stupas carved out of rock,
dating as early as the BC era, which points to the existence of religios harmony even in ancient India.
Antiquities made of terracota have also been discovered here.
