    Peaceful heritage site. Don't judge by the outward appearance. Great wooden architecture inside

    The Jain temple was constructed during the regime of Mughal Emperor Aurangzeb in 1699 A.D. It is located at Muglisara main road, near mausolem of Mirjan Sami. It has not only Jain religious importance but also establishes one of the best example of craftsmanship and drawing of Gujarat. Though the jain temple is marked by its outward simplicity, the inner parts of temple is a treasury of art. During 12th century AD, there ruled a king called Kumarpal. He belonged to the Solanki dynasty and kept Acharya Hemachandraji as his advisor. The Acharya was a Jain preacher, poet and philosopher, and under the rule of Kumarpal there was overall prosperity in the kingdom. Chintamani temple is said to be constructed to honour those great people. Chintamani Jain Temple looks very simple from the outside but surprises the visitor with its brilliant piece of creativity and skill. It has intricately and beautifully carved designs on the wood; the ceilings bore paintings made from natural vegetable colour. The paintings depict Acharya Hemachandraji, King Kumapal and other Solanki kings. Apart from the being a religious place of worship, this Jain temple is also a specimen of the art of the 17th century. It is a clean, well-maintained and peaceful temple with religious, meditative, artistic and historic feel to it.

    One of the oldest Jain temples in Surat, Chintamani temple was built in 1699 AD during the rule of Aurangzeb. It is located in the Moraji Nagar area of Surat, which is almost in the middle of the city and hence easy to access from any part of Surat. During 12th century AD, there ruled a king called Kumarpal. He belonged to the Solanki dynasty and kept Acharya Hemachandraji as his advisor. The Acharya was a Jain preacher, poet and philosopher, and under the rule of Kumarpal there was overall prosperity in the kingdom.

    It is a place of worship of thr people of jain religion. Jain temples are beautiful to see and people of other religion can also visit. You have to take off your slippers before going in just like hindu temples. It is peaceful place I visited with my friends.

    The exteriors of the Chintamani Jain Temple, which was built during the reign of Emperor Aurangzeb, are quite simple. The interiors, however, are completely different, with wooden pillars coated with paintings and topped with carved brackets.

    A sacred place. It's a Jain temple. One should must visit. One can catch the real peace with the prayers. The vibe is soothing and peaceful. If you really want to feel connected to God, the place is a must visit.
