Hanumantal Bada Jain Mandir, Jabalpur

Bada Mandir stands beside the Hanumantal tank in Jabalpur, an area that was once the city's main centre. First built in 1686 and renovated in the 19th century, it looks like a fortress crowned with many shikharas and holds 22 shrines, and is said to be India's largest independent Jain temple. Its images span the Kalachuri period of the 10th–12th centuries, including an ornate Adinath, through Mughal, Maratha and British times to the present. The main hall with its glasswork was added in 1886 by Bholanath Singhai.

Acharya Shantisagar stayed here in 1928 and said it had been built in the manner of a fortress. It is still the main Jain temple of Jabalpur: the yearly procession for Mahavira's birthday sets out from here and ends at Bada Fuhara, and scripture readings and evening classes are held daily. It has been renamed Shasanodaya Jain Tirth.
