Shree Navshya Ganpati - 400 Years of Worship

Of all the temples that exist in and around Nashik, among the most impressive is the 400 year old Navshya Ganapati Temple that’s famous among its followers for being the sanctum where the earnest, most devout prayers are answered. Its presiding deity, a stunning Ganpati idol, showcases a bright saffron hue and dazzling eyes. Situated right beside the river Godavari, the Navshya Temple is a spot worth visiting.

What to do

The temple is just next to the river Godavari and is a ‘Jagrut Devasthan’. It is fondly called as Navashya ganapati since the Ganapati here answers to the offerings in prayers (navas) of his devotees .
