Sri
Dharmachakra
Prabhav
Tirth
is
a
beautiful
Jain
Temple
situated
near
Viholi
village
on
Nashik
-
Mumbai
Road
at
a
distance
of
15
km
from
Nashik
Central
Bus
Station,
This
is
one
of
the
top
Nashik
tourist
places
and
also
one
of
the
popular
pilgrimage
places
in
Nashik.
Sri
Dharmachakra
Prabhav
Tirth
was
established
under
the
divine
inspiration
of
Acharya
Sri
Jag
Vallabh
Surishwaraji
Maharaj
Saheb.
This
recently
built
temple
is
popularly
called
as
Jain
Mandir.
This
is
a
three-storey
structure
whose
architecture
is
unlike
the
other
Jain
temples
has
completely
new
and
contemporary
outlook.
The
temple
is
built
using
the
pink
sand
stones
and
white
marbles
which
beautifies
the
feel
and
the
look
of
the
temple.
This
pretty
three-storied
shrine
presents
a
different
architectural
grandeur
than
that
of
the
other
temples.
Shree
Dharmachakra
Prabhav
Tirth,
which
is
popularly
called
as
Jain
Mandir
is
constructed
with
white
marble
and
pink
sand.The
ground
floor
of
these
eloquent
building
houses
a
Pravachan
Hall,
where
sermons
and
meditations
take
place
"Choumukhji"
is
placed
in
the
first
floor
and
the
third
floor
is
reserved
for
"Ashtapadji".
One
among
the
deities
of
this
Mandir
is
the
24th
thirthankara
of
the
Jains.
This
deity
weighs
a
whopping
12
tons
and
it
is
made
up
of
Panchdhatu.
The
foreground
of
the
temple
is
impressive
with
an
enchanting
creation
of
the
magnanimous
Yantra
of
the
Sri
Mantradhiraj
Stotra
which
is
etched
with
figurines
and
flanked
by
an
array
of
the
statues
of
revered
Gods
and
Goddesses.
The
temple
has
a
spacious
Dharmasala
with
100
rooms
but
it
is
for
Jain
community
only.
It
also
has
a
Bhojanshala
and
offers
healthy
Jain
food
at
affordable
rates.
Good
place
to
visit
If
you
are
a
Jain
Devotee,
i
believe
this
will
be
a
default
"must
visit".
Even
if
you
are
not
a
jain,
the
place
is
still
a
good
place
to
visit.
The
temple
ambience
and
construction
provides
a
refreshing
experience.
An
hour
will
be
a
good
enough
time
to
spend
here.
If
you
are
travelling
to
Shirdi
or
Nashik,
do
visit
this
Jain
temple,
specially
Dharamchakra
temple.
It
has
miniature
to
various
famous
Jain
mandir.
It
also
has
Cowshed
behind
the
temple
wherein
you
can
spend
some
time.
Good
parking
space
available.
Those
interested
can
have
good
veg
food
at
the
ashram
canteen.
Only
one
note,
please
visit
the
place
in
indian
ethical
dresses,
as
they
are
strict
regading
this.
