This blog will guide you through everything you need to know about this majestic temple, from its history to the best time to visit, and more.
The Shreemant Dagdusheth Halwai Ganpati Mandir is not just another temple; it’s an institution in itself. The temple was established over a century ago by a successful sweet maker, Dagadusheth Halwai, who built it in memory of his late son.
Today, it stands as a symbol of faith and devotion, attracting millions of devotees from across the world.
The temple is especially famous during the Ganesh Chaturthi festival when it becomes a hub of spiritual activities and cultural events.
Lokmanya Tilak, the freedom fighter, also used the temple as a platform to encourage unity among the people during British rule.
Over the years, the temple has grown in stature, not just as a place of worship but as a community centre that plays a significant role in Pune’s social and cultural fabric.
