Cave or Rock Shelter in India

Panchalinga Gavi is a cave deep inside the jungles of Ulavi on the slopes of Western Ghats of Karnataka. Besides Panchalinga Gavi, there are two other caves in the vicinity; Aakala Gavi and Vibhuti Gavi. Also there's a fresh water spring called Chilume Honda.

Ulavi has its place in history, it is connected with the followers of Basavesvara the 12th century social reformer of Karnataka. Basavesvara 's cousin and follower Channabasavesvara on leaving Kalyana (Bidar district) came to Ulavi and lived in these caves till the end of his life. It is said that he spent his days in meditation in these jungles.
