Visited this place few years ago regarding some development work.
This place is located near Nagpur city, village kapsi-baradwari, 12km. away from zero mile on Bhandara road NH.6 in a busy industrial area.
This place have historical significance, built by central India's Bhosla king, a stone structure temple with nicely carved 12 arched entrance gateways called Baradwari (बाराद्वारी).
Basically it's a set of two temples built in classical Hemadpanthi Style one belongs to God Ganesha facing north & anather for God Hanuman facing south, standing near Lake which has prominent stone wall and steps to enter & to perform religious rituals.
This trabiated type structure is made up of black basalt, approximately 15ft. In length, width & height. Central part 'cella' is proper enclosed with wall from three sides & open from one with elevated platform from surrounding area that is pradikshna path which is semi open & colonidal structure with pointed arch three from each side. The plinth of this area is also properly elevated thtee ft. from the topmost level of lake wall. The roof is also made up of black basalt slab & canopy over these arches where four ribbed domed structure of size three ft. high and diameter is nicely arranged at all four corners. At the centre of this square based pyramidal shikhra is arranged with smooth corners approximately eight feet high and five feet of each side of base carved and fixed properly as per the Hemadpanthi style and construction of stone over stones.
