The town is famous for Akasi Ganga,[3] a Hindu pilgrimage in Arunachal Pradesh which is located 6 km from Likabali town on the way to Basar in Lower Siang district. Legends have it that one of the body parts of Sati fell in this location. Since then, this temple is regarded as an important holy destination for Shakti worship. According to Hindu mythology, this temple is associated with the story of Lord Shiva, as the story goes; Lord Shiva carried the dead body of Sati and roamed around in the sky and on seeing this melancholy act, Lord Vishnu cut the dead body into many pieces using Sudarshan Chakra which led to the body parts scattering all around India. However, a part of the Goddess Sati fell at Arunachal Pradesh and the place later was built into a sacred temple known as Akasi Ganga for the Shakti worshipers. Besides, the actual Sacred Kund is located 100 meters from the temple and to get there you need to go downwards through the spiral path. On the day of Makar Sankranti, it's a place of pilgrimage. Devotees from far and near come for a bath on the waterfall with the believe that Akashi Ganga washes away all their sins then they offer prayers to Lord Shiva.
