Ranakpur Jain temple: reflection of True Jain architecture
History
Located in the Ranakpur region of Pali district in Rajasthan, Ranankpur Jain temple was built in the 15th century. “Seth Dharm shah”(a Jain businessman) along with Rana kumbha(ruler of Mewar at that time) built this temple. It is dedicated to Lord Tirthankara Rishabhanatha (Adinath).
With 4800 sq.feet of area, 1444 pillars(one of them is incomplete but shockingly, temple still lies on the ground), it is one of the largest temples of Jain religion. There are many famous Jain temples of India, out of which 2 are in Rajasthan namely, Ranakpur Jain temple and Dilwara Jain temple.
