This grove has only a few trees surrounding it. Lies adjacent to the main highway. Many groves lies in the trade route here in Maharashtra because those were points or toll booths where travellers had to pay a fee to move further. Here people hang wooden cradles and other miniature models symbolizing what they wish for, and take them off when their wishes are fulfilled.
