Jagannathji Mandir is situated on bank of River Sabarmati near Jamalpur,
Ahmedabad. The principal deity in this
temple is Lord Shree Krishna. The other
deities in the temple include Baldevji, Subhadraji and Hanumanji. It is
believed that around 460 years back the site where Jagannath temple is located
today was the dense forest on the river Bank . It is believed to be the
favorite spot for sages to perform their penance. Shree Hanumandasji, devotee of Shree Hanumaji
found this spot for meditation and penance and installed idol of Lord Hanuman.
His successor
Shree Sarangdasji was the follower of Lord Shree Jagannath. During his visit of
Jagannath Temple Puri, Lord Jagannath inspired him to install the idol of Lord Jagannath, Baldevji and
Subhadraji at Hanuman temple, thus temple became the Jagannath Mandir of
Ahmedabad. During the 1996-2000, the whole temple complex was renovated and
idols of Holy trinity were ritually installed on raised pedestal, the Ratn
Vedi. A Big auditorium was built in
