The
group's largest Jain temple and exquisite in detail. The sculptures on the northern
outer wall are particularly noteworthy . The themes depict, in charming detail,
everyday activity. Within, a throne faces the bull emblem of the first tirhankara,
Adinath. The Parsvanath image was installed in 1860. Ghantai Temple:
This Jain temple has a frieze which depicts the 16 dreams of Mahavira's mother, and a jain goddess on a winged Garuda.
Adinath Temple:
Dedicated to the Jain saint, Adinath, the temple is lavishly embellished with sculpted figures, including yakshis.
The three Hindu temples of the group are the Brahma, containing a four faced lingam, the Vamana, which is adorned on its outer walls with carving of apsaras in a variety of sensuous attitudes; and the javari, with a richly-carved gateway and exterior sculptures.
