- FVB06Vence, France2,224 contributionsIn the middle of the city: Colorful and devotion of the faithfulNote: contrary to what is said in the other review in French, the Ganatapi temple is in the middle of town, and you do not have to climb any steps We visited this temple around noon in the middle of the week: crazy atmosphere, people queue to enter, we sing, we shout, we buy flower alms, cakes for the gods... The spectacle is extraordinary. A lot of people are on the sidewalk filming because they may not have time to wait in line. Yes, but we are on the edge of a main street and we risk getting hit at any moment. Inside there is a ritual being played out and we can see very well without disturbing the faithful. The temple is also beautiful on the outside In the middle of the city: Colorful and devotion of the faithfulVisited February 2024Travelled as a coupleWritten 2 March 2024
- Harsh & LeenaPune, India3,004 contributionsVisit to Pune is not complete if you haven't visited Dagadusheth1. Your Pune visit is not completed if you have not visited Dagadusheth Ganpati. 2. No matter when you visit, there is always a queue however it doesn’t take more than 10min. 3. You will feel happy from inside as soon as you are in temple and it is hard to put it in words. 4. Parking for 2 wheeler is challenge here and 4wheeler is nightmare. 5. There is a small window by which you can have darshan without going into queue. 6. Temple is well managed and clean. 7. Timing is 5:00 AM to 10:30 PM (Monday, Wednesday, Thursday, Friday, Saturday, and Sunday)Visited February 2024Travelled with familyWritten 26 June 2024

Situated in very crowded place but very peaceful inside. Your Pune visit is incomplete without visiting this place. Very calm and soothing place. We visited on Wednesday so got the chance to sit inside the temple but otherwise it is very small.
Have nearby local market for shopping and you can have good experience

Beautiful temple and one of the oldest and famous ganesha temple in pune.
I have visited here few times since i am living in pune.
Most of time i have visited temple after 9.30 PM..and i think that is best time as all shops are closed nearby and there is no traffic and no parking problem,even you can sit inside temple as there is no crowd at that time.
Must visit place if you are in pune.

The most iconic devotional places of pune that puffs up your heart with its tradition and the arrtis simply mesmerize the environment. The people selling flowers and mithais , all make you sit for long and long. The murti is supremly eye catching and holds you long by its side. There are some food joints nearby as well, which you can certainly try out

My favorite God and temple. Visited many times , very reason for my Pune trip each year, together with a visit to Chaturshringi maa temple. I love the green look of Pune, the vibes I've had, the nice people I've met are my cherished moments. The most beautiful Ganpati idol makes me so confident and positive and protected. The crowd is well controlled, no pushing and jostling, every devotee is given a chance to view and pray to this awe inspiring idol of Ganpati Bappa. The Mahadev temple just next corner has also added to my reverence for this temple. Har har Mahadev 🙏🙏 Ganpati Bappa Morya 🙏🙏

Started the new year 2022 with ganpati bappa's Darshan and blessings. You tend to forget everything when you see the idol. You are left truly mesmerized. Ensure you visit the place during early hours of the day. As the day progresses more people queue up for the Darshan. When there are long queues security personnel push and pull you around to manage the crowd. I paid rs 100 and got into the vip line. Got a glimpse of bappa and was pulled fiercely by the personnel so other people could get the Darshan. So better visit the place at 6 or so when the temple opens for public.

Famous Ganapati temple which is very popular amongst Pune people. One must pay a visit during the tour of Pune, you will feel relaxed and peaceful. Since the temple is inside the city it will be better to taka an Autorickshaw which is more convenient.

A must visit temple for all those who visit Pune and connect with the religious significance of the Elephant God and the Ganpati celebrations. Though its situated bang along a busy road, there is no dearth of faithfuls and you can encounter large queues for entry into the sanctum. For those of you in a hurry, you can have darshan from outside, without the need to spend time standing on the queue or removing your footwear.

For those who are in a hurry: One line review: must visit.
This is probably the most worshiped, revered and visited place of Pune. Place has a history and legend behind its existence.
Well managed, clean, spiritual place. Always crowded, so try to visit early hours of dawn.
Place is magnificently decorated every month on Sankshti day...decoration of flowers etc is very innovative, photogenic and grand. Must see.

This temple is very famous of Lord Ganesh and situated in heavily crowded market Budhvar peth. Vehicle parking is not available and temple is just on the road itself, you can have darshan from road itself. Better to go by cab . Many shops are available selling parsad and flowers as offering to Lord Ganesha. You may have to stand in queue for some time but it will not take much time but during festivals you may have to wait for few hours to have darshan. This temple of Lord Ganesha is very famous among locals and you feel blessed and divine at this place. Photography is not permitted inside but you can take pictures from outside. Very well maintained and must visit place in case you are in Pune.

One of the famous temples in Pune and is probably a top of the list place for anyone visiting or even passing through the city. A small temple but a divine power that is unmatched. Lord Ganpati resides here in the most elegant form adorned with gold and is so beautiful that there is an instant connect. Festivals, prayers, celebrations are all performed in a grand manner. There is a lot of history available on how the temple came into existence on the internet which I won’t get into the details but just being there was nothing short of a blessed moment. We were there at around 9:30 in the night and it was still a constant flow of people for darshan. There is a glass wall facing the main road which allows everyone to catch a glimpse of the deity while in commute. It was our last stop before heading back to our hotel and I could not have asked for anything better to end the day than this. The temple is in the market area and parking is difficult especially for 4 wheelers.

In Mandir is there any particular dress for women like Saree or dress while going for Darshan??
Written 14 August 2018
Though there is no dress code but being a sacred and religious place, it is desirable that one dresses decently and fitting to the occasion. One is going to pay obeisance and respect to the deity and not for a show off.

How far this temple is from airport?
How can we reach there while coming from Kopargaon?
Written 10 March 2017
From Airport it may take about an hr. and half depends on traffic. But still is just 15-16 kms from there. Its on a very busy street so be sure that you plan accordingly.
When you enter in Pune from Nagar Road. Please ask somebody to help.
