Pieces of art and glory of Jainism which was once the principal religion here could still be seen scattered throughout the area. It is also believed that King Shripal cured his leprosy disease by taking a bath in the Mansarovar Pond at this place. An idol of Bhagwan Parsvanath 4 feet 9 inches in standing pose is the main idol at the temple. This idol is full of miracles. It is said that abour 50 years ago, drops of sweat was seen coming out of this idol for reasons unknown. The sweating stopped after some religious rituals were performed.
