| Jalmandir |
According to belief, it was here that 'Lord Mahavir', the greatest propounder of Jainism, attained Nirvana. Hundred of thousands of 'His' disciples and devotees took away the ashes after his cremation here. The rush was so great that even the soils of the area were taken away and it became a tank. Later on, a beautiful temple of white marble was constructed in the center of the tank to commemorate the Lord's Nirvana. This temple is known as the Jalmandir.

A beautiful temple commemorates the place where Lord Mahavir sat to teach his disciples. The temple is a circular work of white marble, rising by low steps into several concentric terraces with a beehive shaped shrine on the top containing the footprints of Lord Mahavir. |
