Ranakpur in Photos: The Most Beautiful Temple in India

Ranakpur is a must stop for any architecture lover in Rajasthan, India.

On our way from Jodhpur to Udaipur, we made a short stop in Ranakpur to see the famous Jain Temple. It has some of the most amazing architecture out of any temple we’ve seen in the Rajasthan region.

Before you make it inside the temple, you’ll probably see these guys outside monkeying around.

Not much else to say about this visually-stunning place. Other than, most pictures just won’t do it justice! A must stop visit if you’re in Rajasthan.
