Temples

• Baba Bhola Shiv Mandir This is the famous temple for the worship of Lord Shiva (Bholenath). Fair is held here twice every year on the occasion of Shivratri in the month of February and July. There is an ancient story related with this temple. According to the old generation, about 60 years ago Lord Shiva's Shivling discovered by a local Seth(Bania). The Bania and his wife lived in a nearby village (Ladayan). Many years passed away of their marriage but they had not children. They were worried of this problem. For the solution, they visit many pastrol doctors and Saint, but they got nothing except disappointment. Once a random day, they met a renowned Saint. He told them a solution by which they can fulfill their wishes. He told them about the place in Lilodh where Lord Shiva was present in the form of a big stone. After that they decided to go there and made decision searching of Lord Shiva. Within one week they started their search. They constantly involved in their work, but after hard efforts they couldn't find the expected result. They gave up and sat down. Then Bholenath showed his glory and a miracle happened there. They decided to make the search again. They had searched everywhere except bushes. Then, they went to the bushes and started searching. Suddenly his eyes felt on the stone of which small part was above the earth surface (land). At this seen his eyes started twinkling. They started to dig around the stone. They dug about four to five feet but couldn't found the root of stone. Actually, that was not a stone but the Shivling in which Lord Shiva was present. The Bania wanted to build a temple at that place, but the owner of that land declined his request. The landlord tried to pull out the Shivling from the land, but his every attempt had unsuccessful. Both of his ox gave up and felt down on the land. Also the son of the landlord got blind on the next day without any accidental reason. He realised his mistake and wrong steps then he apologized to God(Lord Shiva). He permitted Bania to build a temple at that place. Then the Bania started the construction and built a small temple. Bania and his wife visited temple every Monday and made worship with true heart. After a year they got a child(with sharp mind). He brought the first 'Kawad' for Bholenath. Seeing this, many people started bringing 'Kawad', due to which this temple became famous as Baba Bhola. Whoever worships here with all of their heart, all of their wishes are fulfill. Fair is held here twice every year on the occasion of Shivratri. Thousands of people come here for worship on Shivratri. You must also visit this temple once and look for its beauty. This temple makes faith of existence of God.
