Mahavirswami Jain Water Temple
The Mahavirswami Jain Water Temple, also known as the Jal Mandir, is a sacred pilgrimage site located in Pawapuri, Nalanda district, Bihar. This temple is dedicated to Lord Mahavira, the 24th Tirthankara of Jainism, and marks the place of his cremation.
Mahavira attained Nirvana (salvation) in Pawapuri in 527 BCE, and the temple was built by his elder brother, King Nandivardhana, within a pond filled with red lotus flowers.
The temple is renowned for its serene and picturesque setting, with the pond's surface covered with beautiful lotus flowers. It is one of the five main temples in Pawapuri, where the "Charan Paduka" or foot impression of Mahavira is deified. The temple is a significant pilgrimage destination for Jains and is visited by devotees from all over the world.
