It forms a metal mountain as the bells are made of various metals like bronze, brass, aluminium, copper and are tied to a huge Peepal tree.

History of this Temple

About half a century ago, in 1965, tea garden workers saw a black rock in the shape of a Shiva lingam emerging from the ground near a banyan tree at that spot. It was dug out and placed between the roots of a Peepal tree. Over the years, people discovered its mystical power: Make a wish and it will be granted. And when this is done it is appreciated by hanging bells on the bars. People also offer pigeons and a trishul, or a sacred thread tied around a pillar.
