    PALITANA - The Jain Pilgrimage Center

    Namaste,

    Over 850 Jain temples are located on a rocky hill in Palitana, Gujrat, the largest Jain temple complex in the world.

    Pranam.
    Vannakkam Believer: This place must go pretty unadvertised. I'm thinking that would be on purpose - to keep it off the tourist track. But very beautiful, yes. Have you been?

    Thanks for sharing this, it is so resplendent. Surely India always has and always will have the most beautiful architecture in the world.

    No I have not been there. In fact, I found out about it through an email that I received from a Gujrati friend of mine just yesterday. It indeed is a splendid complex. If I go there, my mode of transportation to get to the top is shown in the 5th picture on page 5, in the link provided.

    Pranam
