Shirdi

Shirdi is famous for being the resting place of Saint Shri Sai Baba, who lived in the late 19th and early 20th centuries. Sai Baba is revered for his teachings of love, equality, and selfless service. His simple and compassionate way of life touched the hearts of people from all walks of life. The Shirdi Sai Baba Temple, or the Sai Baba Samadhi Temple, is the primary pilgrimage site in Shirdi.

Gurusthan is believed to be the place where Sai Baba first appeared as a young boy. It is a place of deep spiritual resonance for devotees. Besides, the Samadhi Mandir, where Sai Baba's mortal remains are interred, is the epicenter of devotion in Shirdi. Pilgrims travel to this temple to seek blessings and experience the spiritual connection to Sai Baba.

Adjacent to the temple, Chavadi and Dwarkamai are two other important sites associated with Sai Baba's life. Chavadi is where Sai Baba used to spend resting nights, and Dwarkamai is the church where he lived for a significant part of his life.

Shirdi brings a sense of peace and safety when visitors partake in the daily rituals, prayers, and worship at the temple. The town also offers a story of the life of Sai Baba through various museums related to him.
