Sonagir & Datia Full day tour from Gwalior

The main tourist attractions at Sonagir are the Jain Temples. They have the idol of Mahavira as the worshipped Lord, and the followers of the Jain religion from all across the world flock here to pay respect to Mahavira. Mahavira is said to be the 23rd Tirthankara. A Tirthankara is the one who is the sole creator of the four classes of human beings. They are the saint men, saint women, and ordinary men and women. He is supposed to have gained ultimate knowledge and free from all the bonds of worldly life. Chandra Prabhu Temple and the Kishan Hari ka Mandir are the two major temples in Sonagir and they both signify the importance of the Jain sect, and also attract the tourists towards Sonagir for the splendidly constructed temples. Datia is best known for the Pitambara Peeth, a famous shaktipitha located at the entrance of Datia. This pilgrimage spot features Bagalamukhi Devi Temple and Dhumavati Mai Temple, established by Shri Golokwasi Swamiji Maharaj. Vankhandeshwar, a Mahabharat period temple of Lord Shiva, is also situated here.
