<p><strong>Gondal - Palitana</strong> by surface (±160 Kms. / ±04 Hrs)</p>
Itineary Detail
<p>Today, you'll drive to <strong>Palitana</strong>.This is an important place of worship in Jainism, and its belief system revolves around non-violence toward all living things: people, animals, and even insects.</p> <p>Here you'll find a staggering number (863, precisely) of magnificent marble Jain temples, built on the slopes of the nearby <strong>Shatrunjaya Hill</strong>. The temples were constructed over a period of over 900 years by various generations of Jains, starting from the 11th century. The 2.5-mile (4 km) ascent, via the 3950 steps, takes about two hours—an effort that will be saved for the following morning.</p> <p><br /> In addition to these magnificent temples, Palitana also offers hand weaved bamboo products.</p>
