Rahemi Jinalaya

Rahemi Jinalaya is located in Girnar in Junagadh district in Gujarat The presiding deity of the Jinalaya is Sidhatma Sri Rahemi. The height of the idol is almost 51 inches. The temple can be reached upon climbing almost 350 stairs from Gaumukhiganga. About 5 to 6 years earlier the idol was plastered. This is probably the only Jinalaya in India that houses the deity of Sidhatma Sri Rahnemi inspite of the absence of Arihant Lord.

Sri Rahnemi was the 22nd Tirthankara Sri Neminath`s younger brother. He took the vow of sanyasi after taking ordination in Girnar. With strong meditation he even achieved moksha. While returning from Rehnemi Jinalaya one can also visit the Sahsavan near the Gaumukhi Ganga.
