Bhim Pul: a natural rock bridge


Legend says: While going to Swargarohini, pathway to heaven, Pandavas crossed this river whereas Draupadi refused to jump between the banks. Hence Bhim picked a large long stone and put across the river to enable Draupadi cross the river

ABOVE SAID CRUX IS OK, BUT LITTLE BIT CHANGE IS THERE, ACTUALLY WHY DRAUPATI REFUSED CROSS THE SARASWATI RIVER BY JUMP LIKE OTHER PANDAVS? THAT'S B'COZ, IN INDIA THERE IS SOME BELIVES IS THERE THAT "ANY WOMAN CANNOT JUMP ANOTHER WOMAN"

That's Draupati refused.
