Shri Parshvanath Digambar Jain mandir, is located in Virat Nagar at the foot of the Vindhyachal Mountain in Jaipur. The history of the town goes back to the time of the Mahabharata, when it was known as "Viratnagar" which was the capital of the ancient Mahajanapada (kingdom) of Machcha or Matsya. The kingdom came under the control of the neighboring Chedi Kingdom in the 5th century and was later part of the Mauryan Empire.
