THE is one of the last monuments to be built in the Solanki style of architecture. A striking feature of the temple is the pendant of the dome which in the words of the western thinker Fergusson, “hangs from the centre, more like a cluster of crystal drops than a solid mass of marble.”

The main cell contains a colossal image of Neminatha with conch shell as the symbol of the seat. The floral relief and the carvings on the porticos of the 39 cells represent legendary episodes from the life of the presiding deity, Rishabhadeva or Adinatha. The deity is installed in the inner sanctum which is open on all the four sides. Close to the angles of the rectangular courtyard are four subsidiary shrines with 80 domes, supported by 400 columns. When viewed from above, the temple seems like a forest of pillars where the ray of light and shade presents a fascinating spectacle
