This sacred Jain hill lies 3 km to the North West of Datia and 65 km from Gwalior. There are 77 Jain temples, built in rows on the hill and its slopes, and date back to the 17th century. Of these the temple dedicated to Chandranatha, the 8th of the 24 Tirthankaras, is quite a large one and the most beautiful. A large annual fair is held here in the month of Chaitra (April).
I could not resist the sight and took pictures from far away, of the sunset across the hill. I preferred this because (i) its not allowed to photograph on the hill itself (in fact there are restriction on taking leather, rubber and similar stuff into the temple area); and also (ii) because I have myself very little understanding of the religious aspects of Jain culture
