| About Ganapatipule Tourism |
|
A quaint little town along the Konkan Coast of Maharashtra, Ganapatipule is a popular beach haven. Legend has it, that Lord Ganapati (a Hindu God), on being offended by a native lady, changed his dwelling from Gule to Pule, and thus the town was named Ganapatipule. It houses the famous Swayambhu Ganapati temple. The drive to Ganapatipule is quite spectacular, lined with beaches, an expanse of palm trees and casuarinas plantations, and small fishing villages.
Sightseeing:
Visit the 400-year-old Ganapati Swayambhu Temple,
located on the foothill, and an important place of homage. There is an
interesting Ganapati-shaped walk of 1km around the hill, which is
called Pradakshina, a way of respect shown |
