About

A hilltop temple complex in Pune dedicated to Parvati, built in the 17th-18th century under Peshwa rule and reached by a flight of over a hundred stone steps. The complex includes temples to Devdeveshwar (Shiva-Parvati), Vishnu and Kartikeya, along with a small museum of Peshwa-era artefacts. From the summit, visitors get sweeping views over Pune city. It remains both an active place of worship and a popular vantage point for sunrise and sunset.

Did you know? Parvati Hill's temple complex was built by Peshwa Balaji Bajirao in the 18th century, and its elevated position was later used by the British as a signalling post, the climb of over 100 steps remains a popular local fitness pilgrimage today.
