Sri Digambar Jain Lal Mandir, Red sandstone Jain temple in Chandni Chowk, Delhi, India

The temple stands opposite to the Red Fort with three sandstone spires and a main devotional area located on the first floor.

The temple construction began in 1656 during Shah Jahan's reign when he invited Agrawal Jain merchants to settle in the walled city.

The temple contains a statue of Tirthankara Parshva from 1491, installed by Bhattaraka Jinachandra, representing an important figure in Jainism.

The temple operates from 5:30 am to 11:30 am and 6:00 pm to 9:30 pm in summer, with adjusted hours during winter months.

The temple complex includes a bird hospital that treats 15,000 birds annually, established in 1930 and officially opened in 1957.
