Sannihit Sarovar

Believed to be the meeting point of seven sacred Saraswatis, the sarovar, according to popular belief, contains sacred water. Bathing in the waters of the tank on the days of Amavasyas (nights of complete darkness) or on the days of eclipse bestows blessings equivalent to performing the ‘ashvamedh yajna’.

It is believed to offer peace to the wandering and unhappy souls. Prayers and ‘pind daan’, a memorial service for the dead, is performed here. Alongside the sarovar are small shrines dedicated to Lord Vishnu, Dhruv Narayan, Laxmi Narayan, Dhruv Bhagat, Hanuman and Goddess Durga. The Sannihit tank is believed to be the abode of Lord Vishnu.
