Five temples on Mount Abu, of which the Vimal Vasahi (eleventh century, Adinath) and the Luna Vasahi (thirteenth century, Neminatha) are the two that people travel for. The marble is worked so thin in places that it passes light. It is the standard against which Jain carving is measured, and it earns that.

The climb, and what to expect
Photography is not permitted inside the temples, and this is enforced. Leather items are not allowed in. Non-worship visitors are admitted only during set afternoon hours — check the day you go.
Staying there
Mount Abu is a hill station with a wide range of stays, and Jain dharamshalas among them.
Sources
Every entry says where its facts came from. Community directories are often the only place a dharamshala or a landline is written down, so we keep them — and label them.
