Mahalaxmi temple of Kolhapur city, is one of the famous temples in Maharashtra state. We went to the temple in the month of December 2019 at around 11.30 am where the crowd was descent. The murti of crowned goddess is made of gemstone and weighs about 40 kgs. The image of Mahalaxmi carved in black stone is 3 feet in height. Entire temple is still on old architecture of carving. There is famous Kirnotsav celebrations (Festival of sun rays) celebrated in the temple when the rays of the sun directly fall on the footsteps of murti at the time of sunset. One will feel blessed just by entering the temple as you will have positive vibes all around. Do give a visit.

This is a beautiful ancient Shiva temple, almost hidden, in the small village of Khidrapur, on the banks of Krishna River. The architecture, elephant pillars, and carvings are really exquisite. Its worth a visit if you are religious, spiritual or just an admirer of ancient Indian culture and heritage. I visited the temple with my cousins who stay in Kolhapur on my trip to India and am grateful for them to take me to this magnificent hidden jewel.
