How to reach: It is in the center of the village Div, settled in the midst of the sea.  Delwala, the nearest railway station, is at distance of 8 km. Una is at a distance of 13 km. Buses and taxis are available for The Tirth. The bus stand is near the temple. There is a Dharmashala in the compound of the temple.

Historicity: This is one of the fine Ajahara Sacred places in Saurashtra. In ancient times, many Shravakas lived here. This village is mentioned in the Kalpasutra. It is, therefore, no doubt a very ancient place. After pilgrimaging to Shetrunjay, Hirvijaysurishvraji came here for his monsoon sojourn. The crown, the garland, the angi (dress and ornaments) of God’s Idol was each made at the cost of nine lakhs of rupees. On account of the artistic beauty and antiquity of the idol, God came to be known as Navlakha Parshvanath. There are two more temples in the village.
