Description:
Ranakpur :
Beautiful
sculptured Jain temples mark the glory of this renowned place.
Marked as one of the five holy places for the Jain community, these
were created in the 15 the century. During the reign of Rana Kumbha
and are enclosed within a wall. The central Chaumukha [four faced
temple] is dedicated to Adinathji the temple is an astounding
creation with 29 halls and 1,444 pillars all distinctly carved and
no two being alike is a amazing evidence of the genius sense of
architecture that enhances the charm of the place. Every temple has
this conceivable surface carved with equal delicacy. The ambience of
Ranakpur is mainly highlighted by the location and the almost divine
architecture, giving the same hue as its counter part - the great
Dilwara Temple's. in Mt-Abu. Facing the main temple are the unique
temples -Parasvanath - Neminath with exquisite figures carving
similar to that Khujaraho sculptures. Another temple worth visiting
is the nearby 'Sun Temple' dedicated to the 'Sun God' (Surya-the
master of all the planets and the provider of light to the whole
universe) adorned with polygonal wall, richly embellished with the
carvings of warriors, horses and solar (Nakshatras, grahs') deities
riding splendid 'chariots' the vehicle of the 'Sun God'- which
accordingly to the Hindu Mythology is the God of prosperity and a
shining destiny in this world. Many throng this shrine for these
blessings. Overall Ranakpur is known as ' The tranquil pilgrimage
town'. For the buffs a ride to the outskirts like ' Sadari' - 'Desuri'-
'Ghanerao'- 'Narhai', serves the purpose of their satisfaction.
