The primary fascination of the sanctuary is its twelve sets of wheels situated at the base of the sanctuary. These wheels are not customary wheels but rather read a clock also – the spokes of the wheels make a sundial. One can compute the exact time by simply taking a gander at the shadow cast by these spokes. Even all the more dazzling that an iron plate is sandwiched between each two stones developing the sanctuary.
