Dixit Wada Museum

Reviewed By munikumarr2015

Once you complete samadhi mandir darshan you will routed towards the neem tree and other samadhi's of baba devotees like tathya etc. Try to enter from gate 4 if you want to see only museum and book stall etc, gate 4 don't demand any bio metric pass anyone can enter. If you come out of temple premises after darshan then re enter through gate 4. This is where you see museum building , just walk-in for free to explore all baba used items and things , thanks to temple trust for preserving them in good condition. You get some feel of those days. You get to see baba used dresses, vessels , bed sheets , utensils etc To some extent sai heritage village also gives you glimpse of culture and traditions at those times in shirdi with help POP statues nicely made, enquire and try to visit heritage village as well , it costs 125 per head which has kids play area also. You have blood donation camp as well outside museum , please enquire and do your best to do donation which gives you VIP pass for one year validity for unlimited visits.

Bhandardara

Reviewed By earthtrotter2015 - Ras Al Khaimah, United Arab Emirates

We visited during peak rains of August 2019 when most people were advised to stay home. We visited on week days and therefore the crowds were very less. The rains are very heavy and continuous. Hence the condition of roads is extremely bad. Please bring a car with good tyres and be prepared for punctures or other damage. High ground clearance vehicles are better. Bhandardara is a beautiful hill station. You can visit places such as Wilson Dam, Umbrella falls, Necklace falls, Ghatgar Dam, Kokan kada, Randha falls and Dam Sluice gates. Due to heavy rains we enjoyed all the above places very much. However the Lake was inaccessible and Umbrella falls were closed due to flooding. Kalsubai, the highest point in Maharashtra is nearby but due to rains it was not suitable for families like ours. Ratangad, Alang, Malang, Kulang are four important forts nearby that are ultimate destinations for trekkers. Anandvan and MTDC offer resort services. The place is good during Rains, Summer and Winter. You must visit this place once in your life.

Amruteshwar Temple

Reviewed By prpal2009 - Navi Mumbai, India

Recently we have visited Bhandardara for a weekend trip of two days and stayed at MTDC Resort. Amruteshwar temple is about 25km from MTDC Resort and we drove down to the temple through the protected forest area (under Harishchandragad Wildlife Sanctury) ...... The drive was picturesque and scenic with amazing view of Arthur lake on one side and Kalsubai - Harishchandragad peaks on other sides .... makes the journey unforgettable. However, the road conditions through the protected forest area was very bad and bumpy .... advisable to take SUV if you go by road. About the temple : Amruteshwar Temple is an ancient Shiva temple situated on the bank of the river Pravara at Ratanwadi village (under Ahmadnagar district), which is the base village for traking to famous Ratangad fort . This temple is maintained by Archaeological Survey of India (ASI). The temple is dedicated to Lord Shiva and is considered to be over 1,000 years old. The beautiful stone carved temple was built by the rulers of Shilahara Dynesty in the 9th Century A.D .... Local people says, that the present one is one of the 12 Shiva temples built by king Jhang. The temple was constructed in Hemadpanthi architectural style with beautiful rock carvings on the main shrine. The ceiling, walls and the pillars of the temple are decorated with some impressive & lovely art forms, like Gandharvas, Ganikas, Dancers with poses, snakes , flowers etc. ..... Inside the main temple, you need to walk few stairs down to reach the actual Shiva Linga .... The Shiva Linga is half submarged below the ground level .... can be reached from the front & rear entrances .... careful about the steps of the stairs , they are uneven ... The Nandi is at the rear entrance of the temple which is currently used as the main entrance. There is also a 'Bawdi' near the temple complex . The atmosphere of the temple is vey calm , probably due to very less visitors that makes you feel relax with peace of mind. How to reach Ratanwadi by road : From MTDC Bhandardara continue on the Ratangad - Rajur road after crossing the Wilson Dam. After few kilometers, you will get a small dam by the side of the road. After this point take the road on your right which leads to Ratanwadi through protected forest area (about 20 km). Here you have to pay a toll (Rs.100/- per vehicle + Rs. 30/- per person ; as entry fee collected by the wildlife sanctuary) to enter this road . Other travel tips : - Ample free parking space available near the temple complex. - You will get only some small eateries (say for Chai & Bada - Pao) near the parking , most of which generally opens during weekends bcoz of very less visitors. - Advisable to carry your own water bottles, but pl. don't pollute the surroundings. - Temple opens all days : 6:00am to 5:30pm - The Ratanwadi village can also be reached by boat from Bhandardara and to cross the Arthur lake. The details to be enquired locally. Definitely a must visit place near Bhandardara to rejuvinate yourself ..... Wonderful journey through forest road with great views of the lake & surrounding mountain range !!!

Upasani Maharaj Ashram

Reviewed By Footprints727663

I went to Upasani Maharaj Ashram. He was an ardent disciple of Sai Baba. Situated off the Shirdi-Ahmednagar State highway, the ashram contains the samadhi of the Maharaj and one of his disciples. It is great place to go.
