Visiting holy place is always a treasure, having the virtue without hardship never be remembered, if you visit from Kumbhalgarh it is hiking by trail to reach this holy place. When we reached to the cave temple we found so peacefulness and it is having true story of representation of tenacity performed by Parshuramji Lord Shankar-Parvati manifested this holy place, it’s worth visiting the place as we look to do hiking the trail and the holy place, but those who love to visit easy way there is another route is from Ranakpur. We have visited on the day of Holi to this place and had Prasad of “Bhaang” by temple and we had great time spent to this place! Must visit this lovely place to bless by Lord Shankar-Parvati!

Vedi Temple is a Jain temple constructed by Rana Kumbha in 1457 AD. Renovated by Maharana Fateh Singh, it is located near the Hanuman Pol of the Kumbhalgarh Fort. Constructed to honour the sacrifice of the pilgrims, it is the only leftover among all sacrificial places in the country.
