A new Jain temple in Ranakpur, Rajasthan. Not stone, but concrete, although some of the carvings and the topmost level are made from marble.

Unusual circular stone temple u/c in Dhar, Madhya Pradesh. Only 2-3 old temples exist in India with such architecture.

Quite impressive. It is heartwarming to see such traditions still practiced in India. I do hope they continue well into the future.
