Legend of the Alopi Devi Mandir
The other story is that of a vanishing bride. It is said that a bunch of thieves/dacoits attacked a wedding procession that was passing through the woods here. After robbing all the people here and killing most of them, the thieves came to the bride's chariot to take her away, only to see that she was missing. This mystery is still unsolved, and the place was thus signified as the 'Virgin Goddess Who Disappeared'. Therefore, translating into Alopi Devi, with a temple built here.
