About 70 kilometers from Shirdi, it takes 4 hours to visit this place and come back (1.5 hrs to reach, 1 hour in the temple area, 1.5 hrs to come back). Since I drove to Shirdi, I was... More

The good thing is, there is no temple! Lord Shani Dev's stands as a black stone in the open air. Sky is the roof for him.
