🕍🕍🕍@SHEESH MAHAL, INDORE, MADHYA PRADESH Kanch Mandir (Hindi: काँच मंदिर), literally Temple of Glass, is a famous Jain temple in Indore, built by Sir Seth Hukumchand Jain. The construction began sometime around 1903. Sir Seth Seth Hukumchand Jain was a prominent trader and one of India's industrial pioneer. He built a mansion at Itwaria Bazar called Shish Mahal and adjacent to it the Kanch Ka Mandir, both elegantly built using a white stone. Externally, the temple is built as a medieval mansion complete with a canopied balcony and a shikhara. Jain festivals are celebrated with great enthusiasm at the Kach Ka Mandir. On Sugandh Dashami, special mandalas are constructed using multi-colored rice-powder. Collective kshamavani (festival of forgiveness) in Indore is organized here as a central institution, even though it is also celebrated at other Indore Jain temples. Annual Ratha Yatra on a golden palaki is taken our from here.

It's a temple of jain religion, where all of jain teerthkar can be cited. It's totally of many types of glasses.

This is a Digambar Jain Kaanch Temple. This temple is related with Jain religion. Temple is with amazing looks. Temple background is amazing. Multi coloured glass, truly beautiful. If you come there you feel a lot of piece. There is a facility of drinking water. Parking is very useful. The sheesh mahal is a Jain temple come museum of sorts. Each glass mural tells a story from Jain Scriptures. Many coincide with stories from the Ramayan. Worth a detailed look into.

Amazing to see the Beauty of Sheesh Mahal. You feel actually facinate to see the royal style of Mirror work. You must visit to see the place once.

The sheesh mahal (Temple of Glass) is a famous Jain temple cum museum in Indore, built by Sir Seth Hukumchand Jain. Its hard to describe it's art work. The interior of Kanch Ka Mandir is entirely covered by glass panels and mosaics; including the floor, columns, walls and the ceilings. All design are made of glass pieces, all art work is done by piece of coloured glasses. Its one of the famous tourist places in Indore

Beautiful place. Jain Temple in Indore. Beautifully crafted.

The interior of Kanch Ka Mandir is entirely covered by glass panels and mosaics; including the floor, columns, walls and the ceilings. Photography is banned inside the Mahal, it has religious value also and is also known as kaanch Mandir. There are statues of Jain's Tirthankaras, you have to take of your shoes out side the mandir and also keep ur bags outside. It really a small place. Hardly it will take 15 mins to visit this place.

Good

Grateful to see one of the beautiful historical places. Great royal mirror work.

Great Place! You would experience the history in Real Life

Free entry but photography is prohibited inside by the government which sound stupid to me as it’s very small temple and beautiful and one should be able to capture photo inside . A must visit in Indore .

Good place and good market you can visit there for shopping purpose specially

Nice palace. Beautiful building. Old is gold

I think this is one of the best turf arrangements for corporate cricket. Highly recommended for a reasonable, friendly and enjoyable sports event!

Truly a beautiful and unique Mahal. So many beautiful coloured class

One of the heritage place of old indore where people use to worship. As the name defines sheesh Mahal is Mahal/palace made of glass piece (sheesh) art work of Jainism .

Beautiful art inside but not well maintained. Possibly some renovation may happen. If you are in the surroundings, do visit the place, but it's ok to miss.

Just loved it.... It is so beautiful.. floor to top, everything is decorated with mirror. It is mesmerizing... They should have properly maintained it. Mirrors are broken somewhere of the floor. But a must visit place to appreciate the art work..

It's completely restored.. it's not the same. But beside that a jain temple is there which is made of glass and mirror pieces. It's one of the best jain temple i have seen

Mahal was actually made up of glass/mirror as its name says (sheesh). There was not much to see inside. Also, it was too small like only a one-hall size. Photo capturing was not allowed that’s why couldn't capture many photos.

It was okay. Inside the temple its really pretty. photography isnt allowed. There were a couple of old guys managing it and they were constantly yelling at everyone and were really loud. It killed the vibe. The paintings inside are amazing however. Its a really beautiful temple.

It's a beautiful Jain mandir with loads of mirror work.

All good experience except a little fight for parking. Location is in the market with lots of good foods and shopping options 👍

It's a jain mandir , built up of mirror and mirror is superb.

Vintage

Beautiful architectural monument in Indore. Its not allowed to go inside this building.

Nice. You can't do photograph or selfie in sheesh mahal.

Nice Jain Temple but if any one traveling by their own vehicle than it's difficult to have parking

Great place to visit in Indore. Whole temple made of glass.

It's very fantastic
