Svetamber Jain Temple
Svetamber Jain Temple Review
Properly called the Indraprastha Tirth Sumatinatha Jain Svetamber Temple, this splendid house of worship is painted head to toe with finely rendered murals and decorations covering the walls, arches, and ceilings. Reflecting the building's surroundings, some of the artwork shows Moghul influence. Look inside the silver doors of the shrine to Sumatinatha—the 5th of Jainism's 24 tirthankaras (perfect souls)—to see some incredible original painting finished with gold leaf.
