"Celebrated as Maharashtra's cultural capital, Pune (Poona) houses a plethora of educational institutes, museums and hill forts. Besides being a cultural and educational hub, Pune (Poona) has ample attractions to satiate most visitors."
Pune (Poona), with its glorious Maratha history and Osho connection, a host of sightseeing attractions, pleasant weather, and a largely dynamic crowd of students and young professionals, proves wonderful for a vacation. The list of not to be missed attractions is infinite here but a couple of most interesting hot spots are the Pataleshwar Rock-cut temple and the Sinhagad Fort. The temple is dedicated to martyred Maratha heroes, while the fort is well for a grand Maratha triumph over Mughal invaders.
