Review highlights
- FLAG: 'Gorakhgiri' hill at Mahoba carries ancient Jain rock-cut carvings, but the site's present name reflects a later association with the Hindu Gorakhnathi yogi tradition layered onto the older Jain heritage - a double-layered religious-heritage site rather than a straightforward single-tradition shrine. Included here for its documented Jain carvings; verify current accessibility and religious administration locally.
