         Jal Madir - A beautiful white marble temple called the Jal Mandir centre of a large lotus lake to commemorate the spot where he was cremented north of the lake lies, an old temple built originally the lake did not exist but crowds of people taking a pinch of the sacret dust from the holy spot to make the usual Tika or mark on the forehead, created a great hollow which forms the lake. A temple with the foot prints marks the spot of Samosarna.
