The Ganpati of Kasba Peth holds a sacred legacy as Pune's village deity since the era of Chhatrapati Shivaji Maharaj. The annual public Ganpati procession in Pune kicks off from this revered idol, marking the beginning of the city's grand festivities.
Despite its esteemed status, the Kasba Peth Ganpati Mandal chooses a path of simplicity and tradition, eschewing extravagant displays. Celebrated in a very traditional manner, sans any pomp, it preserves the essence of the festival with a humble touch.
The simplicity extends to the decoration – simple, precise, and neatly adorned. However, it's worth noting a minor parking issue for cars. Nevertheless, the cultural richness and traditional spirit of this celebration make it a must-visit during the festive season

Great experience here but most crowded while ganesh festival
Beautiful old architecture in pure Pune style. This temple is one of the oldest and historically important temples in Pune. This temple has seen a beautiful childhood of Chhatrapati Shivaji Maharaj. 🙏It is near popular shaniwarwada. So you can see both places in less time.
Visited the oldest temple of Ganeshji, conveniently located within walking distance from Shaniwar Wada. Unfortunately, it was closed during my visit.
One of the oldest Ganpati temple in the heart of Pune city. Just a few steps away from Shaniwarwada and Lal mahal.
This temple was originally constructed by the great maratha mother who also raised a warrior Jijau mata. One must visit this place to get experience of the maratha empire.

It is very close to Shreemant Dagdusheth Halwai Ganpati Mandir and good old temple. Photography is prohibited inside the temple. Fee paking outside.

Despite being the revered Ganesha, this mandal has a hand in celebrating the festival very simply every year in a very traditional manner and without any pomp and pageantry...
Simple but precise and neat decoration is also its special feature...
