What you will do

Divine Nashik from Mumbai: Trimbakeshwar, Ancient Caves, and Spiritual Temples

Pick up from your hotel for a full-day excursion to Nashik, starting with visits to significant religious and historical sites.

Begin with a visit to the Trimbakeshwar Temple, one of the 12 Jyotirlingas dedicated to Lord Shiva. Located in Trimbakeshwar taluka, the temple is situated near the origin of the Godavari River on Brahmagiri Hill. It is revered for its historical and spiritual significance, featuring a grand shrine with intricate carvings and a complex of caves associated with the Nath sect. The temple also hosts the Kumbh Mela, a major Hindu pilgrimage held every twelve years, attracting millions of devotees from across the country.

Next, explore the Trirashmi Buddhist Caves, also known as Pandav Leni, which date back to between the 1st century BCE and 6th century CE. Carved into Trirashmi Hill, these rock-cut caves are an important site of early Buddhist monastic life. The caves contain inscriptions in Brahmi script and Prakrit language, offering insights into the region’s Buddhist heritage and the architectural techniques of the time.

Visit the Kalaram Temple, an ancient Hindu shrine located in Panchavati. Dedicated to Lord Rama, the temple was constructed in 1780 with the support of Sardar Rangrao Odhekar and Sawai Madhavrao Peshwa. It is notable for its black statue of Lord Rama and also houses statues of Goddess Sita and Lakshman. The temple’s design and construction reflect the architectural style and religious devotion of that era, making it a significant pilgrimage site.

Proceed to Muktidham Temple, a unique temple built entirely of pure marble from Makrana, Rajasthan. This temple replicates important Hindu pilgrimage sites and is adorned with intricate carvings of all eighteen chapters from the Bhagavad Gita. Inside, life-sized replicas of the twelve Jyotirlingas are displayed, providing a comprehensive spiritual experience and showcasing exquisite marble craftsmanship.

After a day of exploring Nashik’s rich religious and historical landmarks, drive back to Mumbai and be dropped off at your hotel.
