Shri Karguvanji Atishaya Kshetra

the beautiful valley of Karguvan Village on Jhansi–Kanpur Road, Kshetra is about
700 years old. Here 6 idols of Black Stone are installed in a basement, which is
situated in the midst 9 acres of land surrounded by a rampart.
200 years ago, at the time of Peshavas, Jhansi was famous as Balvant Nagar. One
day a person was carrying broken idols in a bullock cart to drop idols in water,
stopped here. After trying again & again the cart did not move ahead. In the
same day night a famous man of Balvant Nager, Shri Singhai Nanheju saw dream and
came to know that at a place where cart stayed. There were various idols hidden
underground. In the next morning Shri Nanheju informed to king about dream of
night, after discussion digging at that place was decided and thus the ancient
idols were recovered under the basement. The King donated 9 acres of land for
temple there, at which rampart & well constructed and a beautiful garden was
developed.
