The Ranakpur Temple complex spans 40,000 square feet and features 1,444 intricately carved marble pillars, each decorated with distinct geometric patterns and designs.
The construction of this temple began in 1437 under the patronage of Rana Kumbha, with local businessman Dharna Shah financing the project that took over 50 years.
The main shrine contains four identical marble images of Adinatha facing different directions, symbolizing the Tirthankara's conquest of four cardinal points.
