Where Was This Photo Taken? (2)
I swear I've seen that somewhere. Is it at a wildlife park or tiger reserve?
Pushkar?

From the mural of a Tiger and a Cow drinking water together, am guessing its a Jain temple. Google search shows me that there is only one popular Jain temple in Rajasthan - The Digambara Jain Atishaya Ksehtra temple in Dist. Karauli. Is that right?

n_siva , you're quite a sleuth but I need the name....you're on the right track.
There're scores of popular jain temples in Rajasthan btw yet you've gotten to the right area.......

the temple has a very popular name (and if I say anymore that'd be giving it away). You have the district right as well as the sidhha kshetra right. There's more than one temple there though - 3 of them equally large....hence a name is needed.

it is, congratulations! Both the temple and the town have the same name - sri mahavirji.
You got the logic right and that was the give-away clue.

Thx Vaibhav, hfot2. I guess I got lucky with interpreting the mural correctly, and with help from the others who had narrowed down the state. After that, it was all down to wonderful Google. Cant wait for the next one to be posted.

In west Bengal? If not, in some neighboring state? If yes, in the western part?
