Sana Caves

There are two sets of Buddhist caves in two different places taking the name of Shana (or Sana) caves. The Shana Dungar Buddhist Caves or simply called as Sana Buddhist Caves are located in Shana Vankiya in Una Taluka, Gir Somnath district of Gujarat, bordering with jafrabad Taluka of Amreli district. Vankiya is located which is located 28 km far, north-easterly to Una town, about 38km south-easterly to Tulsishyam and 35km west of Rajula. There is another set of Sana Buddhist Caves near Somnath Temple in Veraval. These caves are simply called as Prabhas Patan Buddhist caves, and not so much as Sana caves. Nonetheless, information about these caves has gotten mixed up in the media. Sana Caves of Prabhas Patan are located 2 km north-east of Somnath temple. Do not confuse the caves in Prabhas Patan with the majestic Shana Dungar Buddhist Caves at Vankiya, which are located about 105 km far, easterly from this place.
