A very sacred place to visit in Pune. This is a very ancient temple situated in dagruseth area and this has a great history. Here devotees come from all over the world and everyone gets darshan, being in long que also. In any auspicious occasion or ganpati festival, the temple is decorated with ample lights, flowers and fruits. So many devotees take part in this divine work. Ganpati Bappa morya!

Situated next to Laal Mahal & Shanivar Wada, this temple is always a must visit, divine place with positive aura. Huge rush on first day of the year, which is obvious. VIP tickets available for Rs100. New year calender distributed with Ganpati's picture. Huge crowd and parking issues, but everything was worth it. Ganpati ji is visible from main road as well through the see through glass. Temple is too beautiful and speaks the 125+ years heritage.

Devotees of the Vighnaharta need no introduction to Pune's legendary Dagdusheth Halwai Ganpati Mandir. For over 127 years and counting, it has played a significant role in maintaining the tradition of Sarvajanik Ganpati or large-scale public celebrations of the ten-day festival. Unlike any other Ganpati idol, Dagdusheth Ganpati casts a spell with its distinctive features, intricate ornaments and all its divine glory. The Shreemanth Dagdusheth Halwai Ganpati temple is named after a famous trader and sweet maker, Dagdusheth Halwai, who had moved to Pune from Karnataka and built the temple in Pune after losing his son to the plague. The temple idol is currently insured for $1,60,000 (approximately Rs 1 crore). The Shrimant Dagdusheth Halwai Temple Trust, which is a part of the Mandal carries out various activities of social welfare. The first idol was built in 1893 by Baburao Naik with paper and sticky jaggery glue (randha) at an expense of Rs 22 and was formally installed by Lokmanya Tilak. This historic idol is now in the Akara Maruti Mandir of Shukrawar Peth. The second idol was built by noted sweet merchant Dagdusheth Halwai in 1896, the year Pune was struck by the plague that claimed his son. The grieving parents, Dagdusheth and his wife Lakshmi, were advised by their guru to build idols of Datta and Ganesha. The third idol was commissioned on Dagdusheth’s 75th anniversary in 1967 and is built of Plaster of Paris by an acclaimed sculptor from Karnataka, Nagesh Shilpi at a cost of Rs 1,125. In 2006, the trust commissioned the beautiful silver idol that is permanently on display at the temple throughout the year. There is Shighra Darshana ticket at Gate number 4 for VIP Darshan price Rs 100

The temple is a beautiful construction and boasts a rich history of over 100 years. The construction is so simple that all the proceedings in the temple along with the beautiful Ganesh idol can be seen even from outside. The Ganesh idol is 2.2 metres tall and 1 metrewide. It is adorned with nearly 40 kilos of gold. The devotees of Ganesh offer Him gold and money and with every offering the Lord gets richer and richer.
