Among them, Kumareshwar temple is considered one of the most important temples. This temple was built during the Rashtrakoot period and it is believed that Yadav Raja has constructed a coastal ban around it. There is such faith for this temple that Lord Shriram, Sitamata and Lakshman had visited during the forest and they had darshan of Kumareshwar. The pilgrimage of Sitanhani in front of the temple is considered to be the place where Sitamata bathed. Another beautiful legend of this temple is told.
