Nashik Attractions

Nashik is the third largest district in Maharashtra State, located on the western ghats along the Godavari River, making it one of the holiest places for Hindus all over the world. Its historical value attracts lots of tourists throughout the year. Nashik is rich in history, scenic landscape, and architecture, all of which contribute to making it a holiday destination for everyone. There are several attractions you will visit in Nashik, such as:

Trimbakeshwar Jyotirlinga Temple, one of the holiest shrines in the state of Maharashtra, is an ancient and historic Hindu temple of Lord Shiva and is identified as 12 Jyotirlinga. The entire temple was built with black stone. The Jyotirlinga is a famous pilgrimage for devotees to perform various pujas to remove their sins. It is not only a religious center but also a hub of vibrant festivals that attract devotees and tourists throughout the year, such as Kumbha Mela, Ganesh Chaturthi, Navratri, and Durga Puja.

Kalaram Temple is a Hindu temple dedicated to Rama situated in the Panchavati area. It was built around 1972. The translation of Kalaram is Black Rama. Beside the idol of Lord Rama, there are the idols of Sita Mata and Lord Lakshaman, both of whom are black and adorned with ornaments. It also has a very old tree that has Lord Dattatreya footprints marked on a stone. 

Goraram Temple is one of the oldest temples and is located on the bank of the Godavari River. The temple is made of teak wood and is a very small temple. There is the idol of Lord Rama, which is white. This temple is appreciated due to its peaceful and serene atmosphere. 

Kapaleshwar Temple, which was built in the 18th century, was a unique temple to honor Lord Shiva. Legend says that this temple is the place where Lord Shiva performed atonement (the action of making amends for a wrong) after purifying him in Ramkund to wash off his sin. Unlike other Shiva temples, this is an unusual temple, as there is no statue of Nandi (the gatekeeper of Lord Shiva) like other Shiva temples have. The reason why this temple has no Nandi statue is because Lord Shiva regarded Nandi as a guru or a teacher. 

Sita Gumpha/Gupha is the top pilgrimage site to visit in Nashik. It is believed to be a place where Sita used to worship Lord Shiva. The term gumpha means cave. This place includes the legendary caves, which contain the idols of Shri Ram, Lakhshman, and Sita. The cave is small, measuring around 2.5 to 3 meters. The cave is accessed through a narrow staircase, which is located near the five Banyan trees. It has several features that make this temple unique, as it is decorated with beautiful carvings and paintings, and the main chamber contains the statue of Buddha. 

Ramkund, located on the bank of the river Godavari, is a sacred bathing ghat that is known for its vibrant Kumbha Mela gatherings. It was once an important spot, said to be a pond where Rama would take his bath. Today, it serves as a sacred place where the ashes of loved ones are gently laid to rest, which are said to be immediately absorbed into the waters. And for many seeking spiritual renewal, a dip in these holy waters is seen as a cleansing ritual, washing away their burdens of wrongdoing. 

Triveni Sangam, in Hindu belief, is the confluence of the three rivers Ganga, Yamuna, and the mythical Saraswati. As per Hindu mythology, taking a dip in the holy Triveni Sangam will wash away sins and free you from the cycle of rebirth, thereby achieving Moksha.

Muktidham Birla Temple is a marble temple complex honoring various Hindu gods. This temple's main highlights are the 12 Jyotrilinga (sacred representations of Lord Shiva). Apart from its religious significance, this temple serves as a cultural center, hosting various spiritual and cultural events throughout the year. This temple offers a peaceful atmosphere, inviting visitors to engage in prayer and meditation. 

Shirdi Attractions

The next destination you will get to visit on this tour is Shirdi, a famous pilgrimage city in the state of Maharashtra that is home to 19th century Indian Satguru Sai Baba’s Mandir. It is renowned as the spiritual home of Sai Baba, where he lived and preached. The town of Shirdi transforms into a pilgrimage site, attracting visitors from all around the globe. The main and important Sai Baba temple is a must visit place in Shirdi. Without visiting Sai Baba Temple, your Shirdi tour will not be completed. It is a Hindu temple, located in the town of Shirdi Maharashtra. Devotees gather at the temple to pay respect, offer prayers, perform rituals, and seek blessings from Sai Baba. The atmosphere inside the temple is filled with chants of “Om Sai Ram'' and the sound of Bhajans (devotional songs) dedicated to Sai Baba. Apart from the main temple, Shirdi features several other attractions associated with Sai Baba, including Dwarkamai, Chavdi, Khandoba Temple, and Nand Deep. 

Dwarkamai, a mosque in Shirdi, was once the home of Sai Baba, a revered saint. It's considered the heart of Shirdi because Sai Baba spent much of his life there, including his final days. Initially a tumble down mosque, Sai Baba transformed it into a sacred place. It's unique because it's both a mosque and a temple, attracting people of all faiths to pay their respects. Sai Baba lived here for 60 years, performing miracles and helping his followers in need until his passing.

Chavadi, located close to Shirdi Sai Baba Temple, means village office; it was a place where taxes were collected. It is a place where Baba used to sleep alternate nights during his last days. Visitors visit Chavdi to pay respect to Sai Baba and experience the spiritual ambiance of the place where he once stayed. Chavdi is open to the public and displays the belongings of Sai Baba. 

Khandoba Temple is a small temple located on the Ahmednagar-Kopargaon Road in Shirdi. It's devoted to Lord Khandoba, a form of Shiva known as Martanda Bhairava. Legend says it was one of the first places Sai Baba visited when he came to Shirdi as a young ascetic (a person who dedicates their life to a pursuit practices extreme self-denial for religious reasons). Though small, the temple is spiritually important, with simple yet colorful decorations that make it a serene and holy place.

Nand Deep is an important place in Shirdi, said to be the site where Baba used to meditate. The Nanda Deep is between the Neem tree and the Bodhi tree. Baba meditated every day and maintained a perpetual lamp, the ‘Nanda Lamp', serviced by his attendant Abdulla. Today, there is a small structure that houses a lamp.
