Pune
A bustling and evergrowing city, Pune is a place where new meets old in a chaotic yet charming way, maintaining a perfect blend of old traditional Indian, colonial and modern style architecture.
Although internationally renowned as the home of the famous Osho International Meditation Resort founded by the late Bhagwan Shree Rajneesh, the city offers an array of traditional and cultural activities, both in and outside its walls. When visiting Pune, travelers should not miss beautiful locations such as the impressive Shaniwar Wafa and Sinhagad Fort, the notorious yet elegant Aga Khan Palace (where Gandhi was held captive), the "colonialesque" Empress Botanical Gardens, and the mystical Hindu temples of Shreemant Dagdusheth Halwai Ganpati Mandir and Pataleshwar.
