Adasa

Asada is a city referred to the Maccabees and the site of the Syrian-Seleucid General Nicanor's death and Judas Maccabeus's post during the Maccabean Revolt. It is said to be just opposite Beth-Horon (1 Macc 7:39); a 3 1/2 miles distantance.

Adasa is a small village in the district of Nagpur, India, known for several ancient temples situated on a hill. The hill provides magnificent 360 degree views of the scenic vistas all around with vast green plains and distant hills. A large fair is held here annually during Pausha (December-January).
