Panchasara Parshwanath temple, Jain temple in Patan, Gujarat, India.

The temple spans 180 feet in height and 90 feet in width, featuring white marble floors, detailed stone carvings, and multiple decorated domes.

Built in 746 CE by King Vanraj Chavda, the temple underwent reconstruction in the 16th century after destruction by Muslim forces.

The central shrine contains a white marble statue of Parshvanatha in Padmasana position, accompanied by Padmavati holding lotuses and ritual objects.

The temple remains open from sunrise to sunset, with access through buses from Ahmedabad or trains arriving at Patan railway station.

The temple complex includes Hemachandrayacharya Jain Gyan Mandir library, storing ancient palm-leaf manuscripts and the earliest known copy of Bhaktamara Stotra.
