Jirawala Tirth

The temple complex features four grand entrance doors leading to a central sanctum housing 72-inch-tall statues of Tirthankara Adinath facing different directions.

The main Parshvanath temple dates back to 1134 CE, making it the oldest structure in the complex, which underwent reconstruction after attacks during Muslim rule.

The temple holds great importance for Jain pilgrims, with numerous saints and scholars visiting the site to compose religious texts during the fifteenth century.

Located 58 kilometers from Abu Road, the temple complex spans 40,000 square feet and includes multiple prayer halls and meditation spaces for spiritual practices.

The temple structure incorporates 1,444 carved pillars arranged strategically to maintain clear sightlines toward the central sanctum for unobstructed ritual viewing.
