Manchester to Shatrunjaya Temples
Visit the Shatrunjaya Temples from Manchester
The brief
Visiting the Shatrunjaya Temples from Manchester, UK is a single managed mission with MyTripMyTravel. Flight: ~9 to 11 hrs to Delhi. Gateway: Delhi (DEL). On-ground in Palitana: escorted access to the Shatrunjaya Temples, pre-arranged at the prime viewing hour, with a vetted guide and the chauffeured Elite Fleet from arrival.
The Barefoot Climb to the City of Temples The Shatrunjaya Temples are a cluster of roughly 863 Jain temples crowning Shatrunjaya hill above Palitana, Gujarat, India, among the holiest pilgrimage sites in Jainism, especially for the Svetambara sect. The main temple is dedicated to Adinath (Rishabhanatha), the first tirthankara.
From Manchester, the routing is the first decision: Delhi (DEL) is the gateway. From Manchester, the chauffeured leg to Palitana runs on the Elite Fleet, Delhi → Agra via the Yamuna Expressway (3h), Delhi → Jaipur via NH-48 (5h).
Manchester is a long crossing with a significant time shift. We build a firm first-night recovery into the architecture, orientation only, no marquee sites on arrival day. Sleep, light evening, breakfast at the stay, monuments from day two. On the ground, the Shatrunjaya Temples is sequenced for the prime viewing window, hours: roughly sunrise to evening; hill cleared by dusk, rather than dropped into a generic city sightseeing block.
Beyond the Shatrunjaya Temples, Palitana sits inside the wider West India; we plan the trip end to end on a single chauffeured architecture.

How we run the route
The Shatrunjaya Temples, what you're visiting
Shatrunjaya is one of the great pilgrimage climbs of the world, an entire marble city of some 863 temples built along a hilltop that Jains hold to be supremely sacred, reached only on foot and only barefoot. It is a place of devotion first and sightseeing second, and it asks something of you. The Barefoot Climb to the City of Temples
