    Shrine of Shiva i.e. Shivalinga placed here may be the biggest in India. It is 5 ft tall & equal in diameter. You can't embrace it. It is indid very old & must to visit place in Thane. The Lake seen nearby 'Masunda Lake' was spread upto this lake until 1950 s. What a beatiful sight it must have been!
