Gandiveshwar Sthan (गांडीवेश्वर स्थान) is a place mentioned in the Hindu history the Mahabharata and a religious tourist centre for Hindu pilgrims. In the Mahabharata, when the Pandavas were exiled from their kingdom to the forest by the Kauravas, Arjuna hid his Gandiva bow and all his weapons under a shami tree, which adherents believe is at this site.[1]
