the wealth. Encompassed by bothered dividers, the Jain sanctuaries are disengaged in the corridors in a way like urban areas held with parapets and claims to fame to fight off ill will out fitted. Each area like this was seen by colossal defenses in its terminations, with an enlivened entry as a crucial section. The reason is that the Jain sanctuaries are the most extravagant sanctuaries on the planet, outperforming even the Mughal structures as far as size and material richeness.
Sanctuary urban areas did not depend on a particular understanding; rather, they were the symptoms of sporadic improvement. The standard levels of the slant on which the "city" had been constructed required unmistakable levels, to such an extent that as Architecture expanded the design and grandness expanded.

The section to this sanctuary would be four entryways. Lord Adinath's chaumukh sanctuary is a typical example of the fourentryway sanctuary (Nahar & Ghosh, 1988, p. 830).

The standard imprint collected from these temples is however the variety of their segments according to each other. The pointed towers of each curve are unique, but indicate the position of a congregation, a corridor.
