Jain temple, Alleppey, Jain temple in Alleppey, India

The temple consists of two shrines constructed with Rajasthan stones and white marble, featuring numerous frescos and marble figurines throughout its structure.

The temple originated when forty-two Jain families from Gujarat relocated to Alleppey during Dewan Raja Kesavadas's rule for industrial development purposes.

The central shrine houses statues of three Tirthankaras, including the 12th Tirthankara Vasupujya Swami flanked by the 15th and 11th Tirthankaras.

The temple opens twice daily, from 5:30 am to 11:30 am and 5:30 pm to 8:30 pm, with a pilgrim house nearby for accommodation.

The temple structure stands without the use of iron materials and follows traditional Jain architectural principles in its construction and ornamentation.
