    If you’re only got a few hours, the Mahalakshmi Temple lets you soak in local devotion and grab a quick bite nearby. For a slightly longer day and a taste of Maratha military strategy, the 20 km drive to Panhala Fort is worth it the views and ramparts give a deeper sense of the region’s history. Staying at Hotel Atharv puts you close to the temple and makes the trip to the fort a quick detour.
