that this temple of renovated Shri Samant, the disciple of Acharya Jayanand Surisvarji.
The remains scattered over here reveal that this was a large city in the past. The ancient
sculpture of this temple reminds one of Abu, Delwada etc this is the birthplace of Shri
Parshvachandrasuri Maharaj Saheb, the founder of Parshvachandra gachchha. A fair is held
here every year on the tenth day of the dark half of the month of Magasar. Besides this, a
temple of Bhagawan Mahavir and two other temples are there at present. The art of this
place is matchless. It seems that the sculpture of domes, arched gates and pillars in
nearby a thousand of years old. The carving of elephants in the temple, which seems to be
the best work of art of the times of Pallav. The figures of yaksha, gandharvas, gods and
goddesses all around are very well carved
