[edit | edit source]

Jagan Mohini Kesava temple - the exquisite idol, made of black stone and depicting Maha Vishnu and Mohini on its front and rear sides respectively, is considered to be a marvel of sculptural dexterity. The idol has exquisite carvings and scriptures which makes it even more mesmerising.[3] The village also has Uma Kamandaleswara Swamy temple. The idols of both the deities face each other. Every year, the village goddess' (grama devata) fest takes place in the month of April or May in the Hindu month of Chaitra.[4]
