The village is having a natural spring known as 'Maghroo' at the base of the nearby hill 'Dhwaj'. The source of water for this spring is from the Dhwaj hill and the associated large catchment area. Now there is a public drinking water pipeline in the village from which individual households can tap water but still, the cool and nice mineral water of this spring is taken for consumption by the people. The Shiva temple 'Mahadev' is the most revered temple in this area.
