Ganj Basoda

Today the burnt building stands in the former standard flour and mill area.

Major river Betwa flows at west end of Ganj Basoda, close to the town.

Basoda is generally safe from floods due to its high altitude from the river.

Ganj Basoda's economy mainly depends on agriculture and stone mines.

[citation needed] Stones mined from Ganj Basoda and nearby places is exported to the international market through Kandla port, Gujarat.

Shivalinga is installed in the sanctum in which only rays of sun rising on the day of Shivratri falls.

In the sanctum sanctorum of the main temple, the shape of the shivaling is about 8 feet, which is covered with bronze which is only thrown on Shivratri day.

The construction of Shivling is similar to the Shivlinga located in the Bhojpur Shiva temple situated near Bhopal.

Another great ancient Shiva Temple is located at Gamakar Village, about 10 km from Basoda Town.

In village Gamakar, about 500 years old Garhis (small forts where Jagirdars lived) are present which are residents for Raghuwanshi community.

Pathari located at a road distance of 30 km from Basoda is an ancient site of historical importance for believers of Jainism and Buddhism.
