Kalā kşetra. These are the places where important Jain art and architecture, idols are found. Devagarh and Gw lior fort, Elephant cave, Ajant Ellorcaves, Sravanbelgol, Mount Abu Dilawr temple, Ranakapura and many caves and temples in southern India are famous places for their Jain art. Jains when they visit such places, normally undertake a walking trip to different temples at the place visited, performs worships, attend religious sermons, practice vows and study holy texts
Other t rtha: Now days a number of cryas have started building centers of worships (temple complexes). institutes of learning for Jainism and call them as trtha. Further we find new constructions at different places as a result of finding Jain idols there (which were worshipped earlier but buried due to political or other invasions). At such places temple complexes are built and categorized as Ati aya kşetra.
