Girnar Jain temples, Jain temples on Girnar hill, Gujarat, India
The Girnar Jain temples stand at 2,370 feet above sea level, featuring intricate stone carvings across a complex of religious structures.
Dating back to 250 BCE during Emperor Ashoka's reign, these temples transformed from their original name Ujjayanta into a major Jain pilgrimage destination.
The central shrine contains a black statue of Neminath in padmasana position, surrounded by detailed figurines and architectural elements.
Visitors need to climb 3,800 steps to reach the temple complex, which sits on the first plateau of Mount Girnar.
