Very nice and calm temple though very much on the outskirts of ahmedabad, spacious premises and surroundings, approach road passing thru a village makes it special and gives u feel and connect which u don’t want to loose when u shift to a city from a village/town.
Theses temple is 460 year old temple.
An ancient region located just 8 km from Odhav Ring Road. “Vanch”. The original Parshvanath Bhagwan, who resides in the Parshvanath Digambar Jin Temple located in the middle of Vanch village, attained the highest state of purity about 458 years ago from a well located in the temple premises.
From the above description of the idol, it seems to be very ancient. The idols made of five stones and many idols made of five metals are housed in the sanctum sanctorum. Parshvanath Bhagwan is also housed in the upper spire temple. A large hall and room for ascetics and devotees have also been built in the open premises. Even today, 7 to 8 families live in the village. The temple is very attractive.
