Review highlights
- IMPORTANT - NOT THE SAME PLACE AS THE MAIN SHANKHESHWAR TIRTH (row 7): this is a separate, distinct temple in Vadodara district devoted to the same Tirthankar/deity name (Shankheshwar Parshwanath), roughly 150 km from the main Shankheshwar town in Patan district. A nearby (6 km) Panjrapole (animal shelter) is mentioned by a reviewer as worth visiting. New dharamshala on site rated well; the older/original rooms are flagged by one reviewer as unhygienic.
