Key Takeaway: Rock-cut architecture is the method of creating buildings like cave dwellings, tombs, and temples by carving living, natural rock. Although rock-cut architecture is obviously extremely different from traditional buildings, many are designed to replicate traditional architectural forms, both inside and outside, in the countries in which they are built.
