Never exit Pune without visiting the Dagdusheth Halwai Ganpati temple. Ask any Punekar about Ganeshotsav, and you’re guaranteed to hear about the festivities at this temple. Covered in gold, it is the city’s most popular Ganpati that’s been around for more than 125 years. The temple is also notable for popularizing the Ganeshostav. This temple witnesses the longest and the grandest procession on Anant Chaturdashi with the Lord placed in a decorated chariot and the atmosphere is filled with pomp and music in the most devotional way.

This is like the Siddhivinayak temple of Mumbai. Many Punekars begin their day by visiting this temple. A visit to this temple should not be a miss when visiting the city.

Timing: 6:00 AM- 11:00 PM
