Bijoliya Teerth Kshetra is supposed to be the place of penance (Tapa Bhumi) of Lord Parsvanath, place of revolt (Upsarg Bhumi) by Kamattha (Enemy of Lord Parsvanath since previous lives) and place of achieving Kevalgyan (Super natural knowledge) and first place of Samavsharan of Lord Parsvanath. Some of the world’s great petrographs are available here. This place is supposed to be old more than 2750 years, as is clear by petrographs. The Kshetra is about 2 km ahead in south - east of Bijoliya Town.
In V.S. 1226 a famous businessman of Ujjain City Shri Lolark came here during his pilgrimage, saw a dream in night and came to know about the ancient idol of Lord Parsvanath. According to dream in the next morning he dug the place near a pond and thus a magnificent ancient idol of Lord Parsvanath appeared, some other idols of goddess Ambika, Padmawati, Shri Dharnendra & Kshetrapal were also found.
This temple was completed in V.S. 1226 and these idols were installed in this temple on the day Falgun Krishna 3, Thursday of V.S. 1226. This is Panchayatan Mandir (Temple) surrounded by a rampart.
Atishaya - (i) In year 1858 some Englishmen come here and saw the rampart surrounding the temple and vast petrographs, they thought about the hidden treasure here. So they applied mines of explosives around the petrographs. Before they fire the explosive, suddenly dense flocks of honey bees attacked on them and they were compelled to run away, at the same time milk flooded out of mines.
(ii) In V.S. 1958 a wonder happened. Seeing the temple without principal deity, devotees thought that a basement may be there with idol of principal deity Lord Parsvanath. This probability was told to king, he ordered to dig there, devotees and other persons went to the temple, they saw a stone there written ‘Sopan’ on it (Sopan means stairs), it was removed and digging started but in vain, suddenly a terrible white King Cobra came there by southern gate and stayed there. In result all the persons returned from there.

Main Temple & Idol :
This is Panchayatan Mandir with a central temple (Garbha-Griha). A new idol of principal deity Lord Parsvanath has been installed in this temple, no one knows about the ancient idol of Lord Parsvanath recovered by Shri Lolark. Over the shrine of this temple an artistic pinnacle of stone being made, on which images of 24 Teerthankars are carved beautifully with Parsvanath’s idol in center over the gate. Images of Indra (King of heaven), Chamarendra, Dharanendra, Ambika & Padmawati and others are also carved on it in very artistic manner.
