BASAR TEMPLE : ADILABAD 

Situated 50 Kms from Nizamabad, Sri Gyana Saraswathi temple at Basar on the banks of river Godavari is the only temple in South India dedicated to the Goddess of learning . The legend has it that after the Mahabharata war, sage Vyas embarked on a pilgrimage in search of peace.

He reached the serene Kumaranchala hills on the banks of river Godavari and meditated and propitiated the Goddess who eventually appeared before him and granted her presence in the form of the divine trinity. 

The Goddess ordered the sage to place three handful of sand at three places everyday. Miraculously these sand dunes transformed into the idols of the divine trinity ie, Saraswati, Lakshmir & Kali. These are the presiding deities of Basar today. 

The Vodavathi Sila, the Ashtdteerth are other places of interest around Basar. Thousands of devotees bathe in the Godavari & seek the blessings of the Goddess during the Mahasivarathri festival.
