Dnyaneshwar Samadhi Temple, Alandi
Saint Dnyaneshwar took Samadhi(entombment) on the banks of river Indrayni. That samadhi is housed within the Dnyaneshwar Samadhi Temple at Alandi now. We started from home around 5pm on a Saturday. It was a 15km drive with some narrower streets to navigate. There's a parking space available where we parked our car and then proceeded towards the temple which was a short walk. We joined the queue. The queue was well disciplined and was continuously moving. Being a weekend there was quite some rush. It took us around 45mins for the darshan. The sanctum has the samadhi of Saint Dnyaneshwar and idols of Vitthal-Rukmini. We took a round of the temple area and then sat for a while. My younger one was fascinated with the premise, taking it to be a cave and hence demanded to sit in the cave 😇. We then started back and reached home by 8pm.
