Awesome
Dungar
is
a
scenic
spot
located
near
Patanwav
village
in
Dhoraji
taluka
of
Rajkot
district
in
Saurashtra.
Nature
camps
are
also
organized
here
[1].
According
to
the
locals,
many
relics
of
the
Mahabharata
period
can
be
found
on
this
historic
Awesome
Dungar.
The
Pandavas
stayed
on
Awesome
Mountain
during
their
exile.
According
to
his
belief,
Hidamba
also
lived
on
this
awesome
mountain
during
the
exile
of
the
Pandavas,
so
Bhima's
eye
fought
with
him.
During
the
love
affair
between
the
two,
Bhima
hit
Hidamba
hard,
and
Hidamba
bounced
off
the
awesome
mountain
to
the
foothills.
The
bones
of
Hidamba,
which
fell
in
the
foothills,
were
broken
and
hence
the
name
of
the
village
was
ruined
at
this
place,
which
is
still
present
in
the
foothills
today.
Apart
from
this,
the
temple
of
Tapkeshwar
Mahadev
built
by
the
Pandavas
as
well
as
a
water-filled
hodge
near
it,
in
which
water
is
constantly
dripping
from
the
hill.
Apart
from
this,
the
Bhima
plate
in
Patangan
can
be
seen
even
today.
However
over
time
this
bhim
thali
has
become
horizontal.
During
the
period
of
Awesome
Dungar
Mahabharata,
Matri
Mataji
was
known
as
Chhatreshwari
Mataji.
The
rocks
of
this
mountain
were
also
known
as
Makhania
mountain
as
they
were
straight,
flat
and
smooth.
Om
+
Sam
=
Awesome
mountain
is
known
in
the
present
time
as
the
3
shaped
mountain
is
visible
from
the
overview.
Every
year
from
Bhadarvi
Amas,
a
three-day
fair
is
held
in
the
vicinity
of
Matri
Mataji
on
Awesome
Mountain.
The
fair
is
organized
by
Patanwav
Gram
Panchayat
