Brahma Kund

Brahma Kund is an ancient stepped water tank in Sihor with small temples surrounding its perimeter and stone carvings throughout. Hindu deity statues line the area, particularly near the southern wall where the water meets the stepped edges.

The tank dates to the 12th century and appears in historical texts documenting its connection to regional rulers of that era. Its construction and use reflect the importance of water management in the area during medieval times.

The tank serves as the center of a major fair during the last day of Shraavana month, when thousands arrive for religious ceremonies and celebrations. Visitors gather on the steps and around the water to participate in spiritual practices and community rituals.

The tank is accessible year-round and maintains water levels throughout the seasons, though the site requires careful attention due to its age. Visitors should move cautiously on the stepped areas and be aware of maintenance needs.

The tank holds local stories about healing properties despite its water remaining largely unchanged and stagnant over the centuries. These folk accounts add an intriguing layer to understanding how people have valued this location through time.
