Ranakpur Temple


Our next stop on our way back from Udaipur (after Kumbalgarh Fort) was an incredible Jain temple. The main temple was built in 1439, and now the total complex comprises 29 halls with 1444 unique pillars.  It’s carved entirely out of white marble and is one of the most important Jain temples in the country.
