About

Perched at 1,380 metres above Mount Abu, the Achalgarh Fort Temples include the ancient Achaleshwar Mahadev — unique because its shivalingam is a natural depression in the floor rather than a sculpted form, said to be Shiva's own footprint. The site also features a 15th-century Jain shrine complex built by the Mandavas of Mewar.
