रामदारा मंदिर , पुणे / Ramdara Temple , Pune




Ramdara Temple , Pune
As I entered inside temple area, I was awestruck by the beauty. The temple is in the middle of a pond with coconut and palm trees everywhere making the whole scene so beautiful. For the next few minutes, I just stood there watching and enjoying the beauty of nature. I could see remarkable temple reflections in the pond. I believe sunrise or sunset is the best time to visit Ramdara Temple if you want to capture some splendid photos. In fact, I should thank the clouds for giving such a dramatic sky.

About the Temple : The main deity of the temple is Lord Shiva. However the beautiful idol of Lord Rama, Lakshmana, Sita and Hanuman inside the main shrine has made the temple well renowned. Outside the main sanctum, you will come across other Hindu deities. There is also a sculptural representation of the Dasha Avatars (10 different forms) of Lord Vishnu inside the temple. The temple was constructed 50 – 60 years ago and resembles modern architecture. The temple is very serene inside. There are beautiful wall paintings and also artistic sculptures representing mythological stories. There is also a Nandi (bull) inside the temple which is a must see.

This temple was established by Late Shree Devipuri Maharaj (Dhundi Baba).

The Inspirational Journey of Abhijeet Vishwakarma & Raahi Outdoors

The Inspirational Journey of Abhijeet Vishwakarma & Raahi Outdoors 🔥 In a small town called Shrirampur, a young dreamer named Abhijeet Vishwakarma was quietly planting the seeds of a vision that would one day grow into something extraordinary. Like many, Abhijeet moved to Pune in search of opportunity. He began his career as a Manager in a hair salon. After a few months, he joined as a QA Engineer. But deep within, his soul belonged to the mountains, trails, and untouched paths of nature. Travel and trekking weren’t just hobbies -- they were a part of who he was. As life moved forward, he married his partner in life and vision, lovingly known as Mrs. Vahini Saheb, who would later become his strongest pillar of support. But even with a job, family responsibilities, and a child, Abhijeet dared to dream big -- he envisioned building a travel company that wouldn’t just arrange trips, but create life-changing outdoor experiences. That vision gave birth to Raahi Trekkers, a ...
