bhima
the epic mahabharata calls it girivraja and recount the story of its king, jarasandha, and his battle with the pandava brothers and their allies krishna. jarasandha who hailed from this place, had been defeated by krishna 17 times. the 18th time krishna left the battlefield without fighting. because of this krishna is also called 'ranachorh' (one who has left the battlefield). mahabharata recounts a wrestling match between bhima (one of the pandavas) and jarasandha, the then king of magadha. jarasandha was invincible as his body could rejoin any dismembered limbs. according to the legend, bhim split jarasandha into two and threw the two halves facing opposite to each other so that they could not join. there is a famous jarasandha's akhara (place where martial arts are practiced).
