Trilokyanatha Temple, Digambara Jain temple in Thiruparuthikunram, Kanchipuram, India

The temple features three parallel shrines with Mahavira in the center, flanked by Lokanathar and Neminatha on the northern and southern sides.

The temple was constructed during the Pallava dynasty in the 6th century and received expansions under the Chola and Vijayanagara rulers of Tamil Nadu.

The ceilings display numerous paintings with Tamil Grantha script inscriptions depicting Jain scriptures and narratives from Krishna's life story.

The temple remains open daily from 6 AM to 8 PM, offering free entry for all visitors, including special ceremonies and rituals.

The temple incorporates Hindu deities as Ksetrapalas alongside Jain Tirthankaras, demonstrating religious integration in its architectural design.
