Pick-up from your hotel, airport or cruise port and set up to explore the famous temples of Mumbai with your private guide. Visit Babulnath Temple - Mumbai’s oldest Shiva temple situated on a small hillock at nearly 1000 feet above sea level, overlooking the Arabian Sea. A shivling, believed to be extant on this spot long before the temple was built, is the main deity worshipped here. Interestingly, the location of this temple on a hillock is meant to be an earthly approximation of Shiva’s heavenly abode on Mount Kailash. For centuries, the faithful have climbed their way up 110 steps to reach the temple. In modern times, believers have it easier as an elevator can take you right to the top of the hill.
Mahalaxmi Temple is one of the most famous temples of Mumbai dedicated to Mahalakshmi the central deity of Devi Mahatmyam. The temple was built in 1831 by Dhakji Dadaji, a Hindu merchant. The Mahalaxmi temple contains images of the Tridevi goddesses Mahakali, Mahalakshmi, and Mahasaraswati. All three images are adorned with nose rings, gold bangles and pearl necklaces. The image of Mahalakshmi is in the center shown holding lotus flowers in tandem.
Dedicated to Lord Shri Ganesh, the Siddhivinayak Temple is one of the richest temples in Mumbai that dates back to the 18th Century. While this temple gains most of its popularity from the vast amount of gold which covers the throne of the idol, there are several other facets of this building that attract visitors. Don’t be surprised if you spot celebrities going into the temple to give their offerings! (The Siddhivinayak Temple is a popular haunt for Bollywood actors seeking to be blessed before taking on a new project).
