Jain temple at Ranakpur

This detail from the main temple at Ranakpur shows how every square inch of the temples is covered in carvings of characters and Gods from the Jain mythology and history. The temple is exquisite and the young priest that showed us around was justifiably proud of where he worshipped

Haveli at Nawalgar

The word Haveli derives from breeze or wind. The roof tops provided alternative accomodation making best use of the breeze to keep cool in the heat of the summer. These grand, but in many cases crumbling, houses were built by merchants with the wealth coming from the trade in silk, opium, semi precious stone and spices. The houses we saw initially were painted from top to bottom with scenes from the Ramayana, local history and historic developments.
