The Jain Temple located inside the Jaisalmer Fort, is
dedicated to Lord Adinath, the first Jain Tirthankara, and is believed
to have been built in the 12th century by the wealthy Jain merchant,
Vimal Shah. The temple is a magnificent example of the elaborate Jain
architecture that flourished in Rajasthan during the medieval period.
It is famous for its intricate stone carvings, delicate filigree work,
and ornate pillars that showcase the mastery of the local craftsmen.
Inside the Jain Temple, visitors can experience a serene and peaceful
atmosphere. The temple's interiors are adorned with intricate carvings
of gods and goddesses, mythical animals, and scenes from Jain
mythology. The sanctum sanctorum, or the innermost shrine, houses the
idol of Lord Adinath, which is made of pure marble and is considered
one of the most sacred Jain idols in India.
