Swarn Bhandar, Rajgir, Bihar India

Swarn Bhandar is a cave that is said to be the store of Gold of King Jarashandh. There is a belief among the locals that there is lot of gold in this cave and a script is written on a stone as a code to unlock the door of this Swarn Bhandar. 

Two rather strange cave chambers were hollowed out of a single massive rock. One of the chambers is believed to have been the guard room, the rear wall has two straight vertical lines and one horizontal line cut into the rock; this 'doorway' is supposed to lead to king Bimbisara treasury. Inscriptions in the Sankhalipi or shell script, etched into the wall and so far undeciphered, are believed to give the clue to open the doorway. The treasure, according to folklore, is still intact. The second chamber bears a few traces of seated and standing guards etched into the outer wall.
