Amar Sagar Jain Shwetambar Derasar — Local services in Rajasthan

I visited the Amar Sagar Jain Temple located on the outskirts of Jaisalmer city in Rajasthan, India earlier this year.

On either side above are the Dwarpals or gatekeepers. ♿ Accessibility Features: Yes=Ramp access. Yes=A wheelchair-accessible Entrance. Yes=A wheelchair-accessible Restroom/Toilet.
