Osian is 65 kms from Jodhpur and is a great centre of Brahmanical and Jain religions.
The temples here belong to two periods - an early period represented by nearly 12 temples and
a later period of 6 temples. The Jain Mahavir Temple is unique among the Osian Temples, with the vaulted
design of its hall-ceiling. The main Sachiya Mata Temple appears to be made in 1178 AD and has a shikhar
clustered by two rows of turrets, an ambulatory and a large assembly hall with an elaborate ceiling.
