Shantinath Mandir Jamnagar Gujarat

History of Shantinath Mandir, Jamnagar
Shantinath Mandir in Jamnagar is another marvel in the cache of tourist attractions of the place whose foundation was kept with the motive of thinning out the significance of Jainism through out the world. This temple is out-and-out made in the honor of ‘Shantinath’ who was the sixteenth 'Jain Tirthankara'. Not only this hallowed place of worship rather all holy places built in the veneration of Jain gurus will have the essence of their ‘Tirthnkara’ in every nook and corner of its premises.

Description of Shantinath Mandir, Jamnagar
Being positioned in the South-Western portion of Bedi Gate, Shantinath Mandir has startled all the travelers whether pilgrims or otherwise in great number because of its highly structured carvings. The frescos of the Shantinath Mandir are sumptuously festooned with delicate murals along with other striking paintings which exemplify the lives of several Tirthankaras. They have smartened up these figurines of the Jain Gurus depicting their life stories by the use of tableaux. Not only this, the cluttered tinges of greens, pinks, yellows, oranges and blues highlight an assorted multiplicity of local gods and goddesses, flowers, people, and familial objects that boost their tales.

Even the flooring of Shantinath Mandir is worth extolling as it is made of marble and amazingly adorned with shades of red, yellow, white, and black. Another bravura creation of Shantinath Mandir, is a labyrinth of fiercely tinted columns with independent motifs and designs. Further, a colossal arena that rises above the main haven, in a sequence of concentric circles is also dyed in gold.

We hope that such detailed description about the Shantinath Temple Jamnagar must have created a longing in you to visit it at least once as its daintiness will leave haunting memoirs on you.
