Recently during our visit to my paternal and maternal town (will post details in separate post), I got a chance to visit a 1000 yrs old idol in a Jain temple.
This place Devgarh is situated in Pratapgarh district in Rajasthan, India.
Here I am sharing some pics I took of this historic place.
What picked my curiosity for detail is that the bell´s clapper does not appear to be cast from a single mold as the rest of the bell. It seems to have been worked by hammer. I´m guessing that the rest of the bell, which is too perfect to have been cast from an old mold is not actually from that time and got recently replaced, and the clapper is the only original part of it which remains. Nice post!

Awesome work of art. How old is this temple? I saw in the photos of friends old temples in India, they do not have colors, only the decor of sculptures. In this area, do all the temples resemble this style?

Temple is also old but renovated and colored at a particular interval so it is looking colorful.

You do not know if it was recently repaired, or are the bright colors so well preserved? I know that in India, because of the climate, everything is collapsing very quickly ...

I asked authorized person in the temple, he said it is colored frequently to keep temple colorful.

The colourful pillars look so beautiful. And I think even the bell there also is from ancient times!

Hi Chetan, If you are fond of visiting Jain temples then you should strongly consider Fort Kumbhalgarh in Rajasthan, I believe you must heard about it... Below is one of the Pic I had taken during my visit.
