Why brother and sister cannot go to the temple together
This is the only temple where brother and sister are prohibited from going together. There is a story behind this. The construction of the temple used to happen during the night. The temple was built in six months. The temple is associated with the tribal community. Shilpi Narayan used to build the temple naked during the night.
The wife of Shilpi Narayan who built the temple used to come to give him food. But one evening instead of Narayan's wife, the sister came to the construction site with food. Because Shilpi Narayan used to build the temple naked, seeing his sister, he felt ashamed and committed suicide by jumping from the peak of the temple. For this reason brothers and sisters cannot enter the temple. Apart from this, the temple is famous for its architecture. Brothers and sisters feel uncomfortable coming together here because of the idols of masturbation engraved on the main walls here.
