Hutheesing Jain Temple
Probably the best-known Dharmanātha temple, the Hutheesing temple in Ahmedabad was completed in the 19th century. Founded by wealthy merchant Hutheesinh Kesarisinh, the two-storey temple is famous for its intricate wood carving. It demonstrates the multiplicity and repetition characteristic of Jain temples. This temple blends the Maru-Gurjar style of temple architecture with that of grand manor homes of later periods.
