Village famous for its temple and a museum



Aundh, one of the famous old places of India, is a village that has the famous Devi Yamai Temple and Shri Bhavani Museum. Devi Yamai Temple has been built on a small hill. The head of Rakshas Aundhasur, a well carved Nandi, and the shivlinga in the temple are worth seeing. The museum established by Shri Bhagwanrao Pantapratinidhi (the king of Aundh) has paintings drawn by Raja Ravi Varma, Rao Bahaddur Dhurandhar, Baburao Painter, and Satavalekar. The museum has a big department for stone structures. There is a small garden within the museum premises.
