PART .II Profile

1. Industry profile
BIBI KA MAQBARA
DilrasBanu Begum was born a princess of the prominent Safavid

dynasty of Iran (Persia) and was the daughter of MirzaBadi-uz-ZamanSafavi (titled
Shahnawaz Khan), who was the Viceroy of Gujarat. She married Prince Muhi-ud-
din (later known as 'Aurangzeb' upon his accession) on 8 May 1637 in Agra Dilras
was his first wife and chief consort, as well as his favourite. She bore her husband
five children: Zeb-un-Nissa, Zinat-un-Nissa, Zubdat-un-Nissa, Muhammad Azam
Shah and Sultan Muhammad Akbar.
After giving birth to her fifth child, Muhammad Akbar, DilrasBanu Begum possibly
suffered from puerperal fever, due to complications caused by the delivery and died
a month after the birth of her son on 8 October 1657. Upon her death, Aurangzeb's
pain was extreme and their eldest son, Azam Shah, was so grieved that he had
a nervous breakdown. It became Dilras' eldest daughter, Princess Zeb-un-Nissa's
responsibility to take charge of her newborn brother. Zeb-un-Nissa doted on her
brother a lot, and at the same time, Aurangzeb greatly indulged his motherless son
and the prince soon became his best-loved son.
Three years after her death, in 1660, Aurangzeb commissioned a mausoleum at
Aurangabad to act as her final resting place, known as BibiKaMaqbara ("Tomb of
the Lady").It is notable that Aurangzeb never raised monumental edifices during his
half-a-century reign, but made just one exception, that is, to build the mausoleum of
his wife. Here, Dilras was buried under the posthumous title of 'Rabia-ud-Daurani'
("Rabia of the Age"). The BibiKaMaqbara bears a striking resemblance to the
famous TajMahal, the mausoleum of Dilras' mother-in-law, Empress
MumtazMahal,who herself died in childbirth.
BibiKaMaqbara was the largest structure that Aurangzeb had to his credit.In the
following years, her tomb was repaired by her son, Azam Shah, under Aurangzeb's
orders.Aurangzeb, himself, is buried a few kilometers away from her mausoleum
in Khuldabad.

ELLORA CAVES
Ellora is one of the largest rock-cut monastery-temple caves complexes in the world,
and a UNESCOWorld Heritage Site in Maharashtra, India. The site presents
monuments and artwork of Buddhism, Hinduism and Jainism from the 600-1000 CE
period. Cave 16 of Ellora features the largest single monolithic rock excavation in the
world, the Kailasha temple, a chariot shaped monument dedicated to Shiva. The
Kailasha temple excavation also presents the gods, goddesses and mythologies found
in Vaishnavism, Shaktism and relief panels summarizing the two major Hindu Epics.
The site features over 100 caves, of which 34 caves are open to public. These were
excavated out of the vertical basalt cliff in the Charanandri hills. These consist of 12
Buddhist (caves 1–12), 17 Hindu (caves 13–29) and 5 Jain (caves 30–34) caves. Each
group presents the respective deities and mythologies prevalent in 1st millennium CE,
as well as the monasteries of that religion. They were built in proximity and illustrate
the religious harmony prevalent in ancient India. All Ellora monuments were built by
Hindu dynasties, such as the Rashtrakuta dynasty who built some of the Hindu &
Buddhist group of caves, and Yadav dynasty who built some of the Jain group of caves.
Ellora was an important historic commercial center of the Deccan region, located on an
ancient trade route of South Asia. The caves served as monasteries for monks, temples
for prayers and a place for pilgrims to rest, but now is an archaeological site. It is 29
kilometres (18 miles) north-west of the city of Aurangabad, and about 300 kilometres
(190 miles) east-northeast from Mumbai. Ellora Caves, along with the nearby Ajanta
Caves, form one of the major tourist attractions in Marathwada region of Maharashtra.
Ellora is a protected monument under the Archaeological Survey of India.

AJANTA CAVES
The Ajanta Caves in Aurangabad district of Maharashtra state of India are about
30 rock-cut Buddhist cave monuments which date from the 2nd century BCE to
about 480 or 650 CE. The caves include paintings and rock cut sculptures described
as among the finest surviving examples of ancient Indian art, particularly expressive
paintings that present emotion through gesture, pose and form. According to
UNESCO, these are masterpieces of Buddhist religious art that influenced Indian
art that followed. The caves were built in two phases, the first group starting around
the 2nd century BC, while the second group of caves built around 400–650 CE
according to older accounts, or all in a brief period of 460 to 480 according to
Walter M. Spink. The site is a protected monument in the care of the
Archaeological Survey of India, and since 1983, the Ajanta Caves have been
a UNESCO World Heritage Site

DEVGRI FORT
Daulatabad also known as Devagiri, is a town which includes the Devagiri-

Daulatabad fort It carries the distinction of remaining undefeated in battle. It is a 14th-
century fort city in Maharashtra state of India, about 16 kilometres (9.9 mi) northwest
of Aurangabad. The place was originally named Devagiri when it was an important
uplands city along caravan routes (ca. sixth century AD), but the intervening centuries
have reduced it to a village. However it is also considered to be one of the seven
wonders of Maharashtra and a developing tourist spot.
The historical triangular fort of Daulatabad was built by first Yadav king Bhilan in
1187

AURANGABAD CAVES
The Aurangabad caves are twelve rock-cut Buddhist shrines located on a hill running
roughly east to west, close to the city of Aurangabad, Maharashtra. The first reference
to the Aurangabad Caves is in the great chaitya of Kanheri Caves. The Aurangabad
Caves were dug out of comparatively soft basalt rock during the 6th and 7th century.
The caves are divided into three separate groups depending on their location.
The carvings at the Aurangabad Caves are notable for including Hinayana style stupa,
Mahayana art work and Vajrayana goddesses. These caves are among those in India
that show 1st millennium CE Buddhist artwork with goddesses such as Durga, and gods
such as Ganesha, although Buddhist caves in other parts of India with these arts are
older. Numerous Buddhist deities of the Tantra tradition are also carved in these caves.

PART – III Literature Survey
Literature review2017
VINCINT PASKENALI A French traveller tourist visited to Aurangabad recently to Study
the Aurangabad Tourist Place. According to him, Aurangabad is the best city in the world
but there was less branding about these city. He says there should be organisation of cultural
programme for the tourist to stay and know the culture of this beautiful city so that they can
enhance the economy as well as boost the tourism.
He was very impressed by the Ajanta and Ellora caves due to these reason he has visited
Aurangabad twice and try to gather history of the city. He had gather much information about
city. According to him SoneriMahel is much better than Cochi’s Dutch palace only with the
less tourist spot other cities like Cochi, Paducherry ,Udaipur has managed tourist to stay for
1-2 weeks but the fact is 3 days are enough to see these cities.
In Aurangabad there are many domestic tourist spot but there less information about these
places on the local peoples don’t know much about these places. Many of the tourists prefer
to stay in affordable hotels and travel by local transportation so it is the responsibility of the
citizens of the city to guide and create awareness about this beautiful city.
He ended with some of the bitter facts that roads in Aurangabad has bad impact on tourist
mentality. He has already started a blog to give the information about Aurangabad city.
He suggested that not only airlines but also the road ways and railway connectivity must be
improve to connect this city with other tourist places in India.
G.S. Batra and R.C Dangwal (2001) in their book ‘Tourism Promotion and Development’
Have viewed than India has great tourism potential due to unique cultural and natural
attraction .The potential has not fully exploited and whatever attempt made in this direction
has not made expected. They have further explored immense vistas in Indian tourism.

If we consider the average % of Foreigner visitor it is only 1.76% of the total visitors visited
to Maharashtra in the year 2015 and the total earning was 12465083.33 INR approximately.
Whereas on the other hand domestic tourist were covering 98.24% of the total visit in the
mentioned year, out of which the total earning of MTDC through ticket was 69838360.83
INR approximately.
Hence to conclude on this information if MTDC focus on more foreigner visitors to visit the
Maharashtra state, it will directly impact for the betterment of Maharashtra as only 1.75%
cover more the 12+ Cr. And if so we need to understand the expectations of the visitors and
have to find out the lacking so that more visitors can come to Maharashtra state and which
will also grow the economical and other development.
Therefore this study is being conducted to see the minute expectations of visitors/Tourist who
visits to Aurangabad as Aurangabad is the historical capital of the State.
Above mentioned statistical data shows the clear-cut requirements of the visitors and some of
their basic needs as well.
