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).
