Shirdi

Acclaimed as a famous pilgrimage for the Hindus, Shirdi is one of the most visited places in Maharashtra where tourists come from in and around the country. Located close to the city of Nashik and the metropolis of Mumbai, Shirdi is most revered for the Sai Baba Temple. However apart from the religious significance that has made the small town so famous, Shirdi is also one of the most serene places lying in close touch with nature. Located far from the maddening crowd, a small trip to this place is not only a way to seek salvation but a good way to free yourself from the urban stress.

If you are thinking of making a trip to Shirdi this is the right time. Located close to Mumbai, you can always take a six hours bus ride to this religious destination. With no dearth of government and private buses plying between Mumbai and Shirdi, tourists can easily plan a trip to Shirdi.

Spread across, an area of 200 square meters, the Shirdi Sai Baba Temple, refurbished in the year 1998-99, is one of the most popular tourist destination in the city. Treasuring the memories of the last days of Sai Baba, the pristine temple is a great place to seek salvation for the devout Hindus. The Shani Temple and the Maruti Temple are also important religious shrines for the pilgrims. This temple also has the Samadhi Temple and a large statue of Sri Satya Sai.



The other important religious places of visit in Shirdi are the Gurusthan which is a tribute to the Guru of Sai Baba. Thousands of pilgrims come to worship the Neem Tree here on Thursday and Friday. The other places to visit are Lendi Baug, Dwarkamai Temple, Khandoba Temple, Tatya Kote Samadhi, Bhau Kumbar's Samadhi etc.
