Shirdi Travel Guide

Shirdi is some 90 kms away from Nasik and famous for Saint Saibaba (who is also popularly known as 'the Child of God'). Both Hindus and Muslims believe in Saibaba and visit the Saibaba Temple at least one a week, preferably at Thursdays. On every holy Thursday, a special Aarti (prayer) is performed in the temple. Other places of tourist interest are the Gurusthan, the Khandoba Temple, the Shani Mandir, the Narsimha Mandir, the Changdev Maharaj Samadhi and the Sakori Ashram.
