This sacred site is situated near the Triveni Sangam, the confluence of three holy rivers: Hiran, Kapila, and Saraswati. Dehotsarg Teerth is part of the larger Somnath complex, known for the famous Somnath Temple, an important spiritual and historical landmark.

Nice temple

Here shree Krishna temple was beautiful. The arrow of the poacher named Jara at this spot hit Krishna's leg. The temple at Bhalka Tirth is known as Mahaprabhuji's Bethak.
