Jain Rock Temples, 400 AD.Gwalior. India
Jain faith diverged from Buddhism around 2000 years ago. Jains eat no living thing; the do not even eat root vegetables, as insects may be harmed when harvesting them. They wear masks so as not to kill insects, and brush the ground in front of them with a broom to avoid walking on them. These very old temples are almost never seen by tourists, are neglected and very beautiful. Their god statues are usually naked. The tall ones behind are around 8m.
