The exceptionally beautiful ranakpur complex, 60 km north of Udaipur, is one of the largest and most important Jain temple in India. It is tucked away in a remote valley of the Aravalli range and is certainly worth seeing.
|
| The main temple is the Chaumukha Temple, or Four-Faced Temple, dedicated to Adinath. Built in 1439, this huge, superbly crafted and well-kept marble temple has 29 halls supported by 1444 pillars, no two alike. Within the complex are two other join temples to Nominate and Peasant and, a little distance away, a Sun Temple. One Kilometer from the main complex is the Amba Mata Temple. |
