Outside of the town to the south, with a well fifteen feet by twelve and a broad flight of steps leading to the stream, is an old Hemadpanti temple sacred to Mahadev.
In the middle of the town, in an earthen cave, is an image of the god, Trivikram, in whose honor a yearly fair is held.
Kadoba Buva Maharaj began to dig in the market-place, found the image, and set it in the place where the temple now stands.
