English: Cave 3 is one of the rock cut caves of the Elephanta complex which is comprises of 7 caves and it is situated in the western hill of Elephanta Island.Cave 3 is next to Cave 2, as one continues to go away from the main shrine. It is a portico with six pillars, and a mandapa with pillars. The portico is 26 m (85 ft) long and 11 m (36 ft) deep and is supported by four reconstructed pillars. At the back of the portico are three chambers. The central door at the back of the portico leads to a damaged shrine, the sanctum seems to be for a Linga, but that is lost. The shrine is a plain room 6 m (20 ft) deep by 5.7 m (19 ft) wide with a low altar. The shrine door has some traces of sculpture. The dvarapalas on each side, leaning on dwarfs with flying figures over the head, are now in fragments.There are two other chambers, one on each side of the shrine.
This site is declared by the archaeological survey of India as a monument of National Importance Vides No. 2704-A, Dates 26.05.1909 and thereafter inscribed by the UNESCO as a World Heritage site in 1987.
