Kesariyaji, Jain temple in Rishabhdeo, Rajasthan, India

The Kesariyaji temple features 52 spires arranged around a central structure, with each spire representing temples of Nandishwar Dweep in Jain tradition.

Constructed in the 8th century, this temple became one of four principal religious institutions associated with the Sisodia Maharanas dynasty of Udaipur.

The temple receives substantial saffron offerings during ceremonies, leading to its name Kesariyaji, and serves both Digambara and Svetambara Jain communities.

The temple maintains daily operations from 6:00 AM to 8:30 PM, with accommodation available at Kikabhai Dharamshala and Hotel Bhagyashali in the vicinity.

The temple sits in Rishabhdeo, which holds the distinction of being the largest producer of green marble worldwide with over 200 active mines.
