A TEMPLE WITH A PECULIAR FOOD OFFERING

The legend has it that saptarishis worshipped the Lord proclaiming that He is the paradevata and the Lord took the name Mayapiran at this kshetram. This temple is believed to have been built by Beemasena of the pandavas.

Since this temple is associated with Bhima there is a peculiar offering of food prepared of 400 measures of rice, to the presiding deity in this kshetram.
