The temples are situated in a specific way around the village. One is situated on top of the mountain, and is called "Chumbaleshwar".

The second temple is in a deep valley and is named "Siddheshwar". People called this place "DARA" (in Marathi/Hindi "दरा". literally meaning a deep valley). Villagers celebrate the festival "Bhandara" at this place on the third Monday of the Sharavana month every year (in July or August), wherein people from 5-6 villages gather together. There everyone eats a dish called "Prasada" of "lapsi".

The third temple is "Adinath", and is situated on the ground level (1.5 km east of the Siddeshawar temple). In front of the temple is a cold water stream constantly flowing to slake the thirst of travellers, wayfarers and pilgrims.
