aka 'Kirti Stambh', is similar to the Tower of Victory but is much smaller & older. The 75 foot, 7-storey tower, located near Maharana Kumbha's palace was built by a wealthy Jain merchant in the 12th century, & the tower is dedicated to Adinathji, the first Jain Tirthankaras. A narrow stairway with 54 steps ascends the tower to the top.
