Tour Overview

Discover the architectural masterpiece of Dilwara Jain Temples in Mount Abu, Rajasthan's only hill station. Built between 11th-13th centuries, these five temples showcase the finest marble craftsmanship in India. The Vimal Vasahi Temple (1031 AD) dedicated to the first Tirthankara and Luna Vasahi Temple (1230 AD) dedicated to the 22nd Tirthankara feature ceiling carvings so intricate that each lotus petal is unique among thousands. Marvel at the Rang Mandap's 48 pillars, each carved from a single marble block, and the delicate jali (lattice) screens that filter sunlight into ethereal patterns. The temple complex is surrounded by Mount Abu's cool climate, scenic Nakki Lake, and the mystical Adhar Devi cave temple carved into a sheer cliff face.
