Muktagiri (Mendhagiri) Digambara Jain Teerth

Muktagiri (ancient Mendhagiri) is a breathtaking Digambara Jain Siddha Kshetra located on the border of Betul district amidst the verdant Satpura forests. The sacred site comprises an extraordinary ensemble of 52 pure-white historic temples perched along the steep rocky sides of an amphitheater gorge and beside a plunging seasonal waterfall. Rooted in legends dating back centuries and documented in medieval Jain shastras, the 10th temple houses an ancient cave shrine enshrining Parshvanatha under seven serpent hoods.
