The Shrine of Bavsi Tubraj
Tubraj hill is situated on the border of Gujrat and Rajasthan. The people of Bhil and Garasia tribes visit this place on second day of Diwali festival to worship Bavsi Tubraj and offer him terracotta horses and elephants. They also sacrifice a goat in his honour. Bavsi Tubraj is considered as the protector of village and fields; hence the forest on the Tubraj hill is believed to be a sacred grove. The trees here are never axed nor the forest produce is sold. When an old tree in the sacred grove falls accidentally, the village people observe a fast. This concept expresses the conservation method and traditional environment of local people.
