It is said that the structure built of stones and decorated with carved scenes from the Kama Sutras was built by a prostitute. This architectural marvel was built during the prosperous reign of the Maharaja of Champaner. It is also known as Khajuraho of Dahod district. The great Maharaja Siddjaraj Jaisingh invaded the state of Malva in Vikram Sanvat 1093, and camped in Dahod for the next twelve years. Siddharaj's enormous army built Chhab Talav (Basket Lake) in one night. Each soldier of his army dug one basket of soil to form a lake overnight. The historical red stone, carved with the word "Hanumanji" was planted during the grand opening ceremony of Chhab Talav. It is still intact, and can be seen at the last overflow (Chhela Ovare). Maharaj Sidharaj Jaisingh also placed a stone, carved with the word "Shila Lekh" in Sanskrit, at Panigate. The British Government moved that stone to a museum in Pune, Maharashtra.
