Review highlights
- Dedicated to Ajitnath, the 2nd Tirthankar; the temple's hilltop setting and stone carving are widely praised. Photography inside is prohibited. Reviewers repeatedly recommend an overnight stay at the dharamshala to properly experience the evening 'Shaam ki Bhakti' (diya-lit devotional singing) and warn about aggressive monkeys on the hill.
