Harishchandragad
किती सांगू आणि काय सांगू
एकदा तरी हरीचंद्रगड नक्की जा
आणि कोकण कड्यावरून दिसणाऱ्या सुर्यास्त अनुभवा
Harishchandragad:-
Type : Hill Fort Fort Range : Malshej District : Ahmednagar Height above sea level : 4510 ft.
Difficulty rating:Medium Base village : Khireshwar Appx. time to reach : 3-4 hrs from the base village
Harishchandragad Fort is famous for its height, its toughness and the famous 'Konkan Kada' 1800 ft. Harishchandra Temple is known to be the pride of the fort. Sant Changdev stayed here for some time and completed his manuscript - 'Tatwasaar'. The Nandi and Shivling in the temple are breathtaking. Harishchandragad Fort is situated in Junnar region near Malshej Ghat. Rohidas, Taramati and Harishchandra are the three peaks in Harishchandragad. Many peaks, fort and other beautiful places such as Malshej Ghat, Jivdhan, Nane Ghat, Ratangad, Kalsubai, etc. can also be seen from here.
Sightseeing : To the east of the temple is a well-built lake called "Saptatirtha". On its bank are temple-like constructions in which there are idols of Lord Vishnu. Going rightwards of Harishchandreshwar temple, we come across a huge cave of Kedareshwar, in which there is a big Shivlinga, which is totally surrounded by water. Konkan Kada (Konkan cliff) most interesting point on this fort is this cliff. Caves on Harishchandragad are situated all over the fort. Many of these are situated at the foot of Taramati peak & are the place of accommodation. Nageshwar temple near Khireshwar is a great antique construction, and diverse artistic works are seen on this.

भुलेश्वर पुणे bhuleshwar pune
भुलेश्वर बरेच दिवस मनांत होतं पण होत नव्हतं शेवटी एप्रिल महिन्यात एका रविवारी जमवलंच. प्रदीप, आदित्य आणि सचिन लब्दे निघाले. रात्री च्या ट्रेनने पुणे गाठलं , सकाळी सासवड आणि सासवड ते यवत साधारण २ तास लागतो. ( स्वताच वाहन नेण चांगल )
यवतच्या अलीकडे - पूण्याकडुन सोलापुर कडे जाताना, उजवीकडे एक कालव्याच्या बाजुने रस्ता आत जातो, तोच रस्ता भुलेश्वरकडे जातो. एकदा उजवीकडे वळलं की सतत एक टेलिफोन टॉवर दिसत राहतो. तोच आपल्याला गाठायचा असतो हे लक्षात ठेवा. खबरदारी या गोष्टीची घ्यावी लागते की, शेवटचा घाट हा फार अवघड आहे, फक्त एक म्हणजे एकच चार चाकी जाउ शकते.
आता मंदिरा बद्दल - हे एका टेकडीवर असलेल्या पठारावर आहे. बाहेरुन मंदिर मोठ्या वाड्यासारखे दिसते. उन्हातुन आत गेलात तर वाटेल की समोर मुर्ती पण नाही आणि सग़ळा अंधार आहे. या अंधाराला थोडे डोळे सरावले की डाव्या बाजुला पहा एक दिड फुटी या मापाच्या ४ पाय-या आहेत.
त्या चढुन वर गेलात की मग आधी लक्ष जातं ते या नंदीकडे. अतिशय रेखीव्,प्रमाणबद्ध खुप मोठा आहे.
