Gori Temple, Jain temple in Nagarparkar, Pakistan.

The white marble temple measures 125 feet by 60 feet, featuring 52 domes and intricate stone carvings on its elevated platform.

Built between 1375 and 1376, the temple served as a center of Jainism until the 19th century when changes in the Arabian Sea affected local commerce.

The temple contains 24 small cells designed for representations of Jain Tirthankaras and displays ancient frescoes depicting religious narratives.

Located in the Tharparkar district of Sindh province, the temple stands approximately 14 miles northwest of Viravah Temple near the Pakistan-India border.

The entrance canopy preserves the oldest known Jain frescoes in the northern regions of the Indian subcontinent.
