My Trip to Shirdi
This year,in march holiday's I went to shirdi which is in maharashtra. We went there by train 'Sachkhand'. It takes a very long time to reach shirdi so we get bored in train but somehow we manage it. we played a lots of games in train and interacted with sikh people who were going to hazoor shahib.
Starting our journey on 19th march , we reached there next day afternoon.In shirdi temperature was very high and hot weather. Firstly we booked hotel and take rest of 2 hours. In the evening, we went to sai baba temple which was very beautiful.
we were not allowed to click photo of temple.then we heard shirdi dhoop aarti which was very melodious.
after listening to dhoop aarti we saw dwarkamai.in dwarkamai, saibaba's sitting place and chulha
were there.
next day we went to nasik to see other famous temple. firstly we saw trayambakeshwar temple
it is one of the 'jotirling' of lord shiva. This temple is full of achitecture and sculpture of
old times. shivling was very surprising as in centre of shivling ganga flows.
after this we went to kalaram temple. this temple was built before 400 years.In this temple idols of lord Rama, laxman and Sita are in black colour and naturally occured in river yamuna.
then we saw mukti dham . this temple has idols of all hindu gods .this temple is very beautiful.
after watching such a beautiful temples,we came in hotel in shirdi and in evening again went for dhoop aarti.next day, we went to shani shingnapur temple of lord shani. the most interesting fact about this is that here in shingnapur, houses and shops do not have doors. with lord shani's grace nobody can stole anything.
then we went to aurangabad. in aurangabad firstly we saw bhadra maruti temple of lord hanuman.in this temple idol of hanuman is in rest position. it is the only temple of its type in the world. lord hanuman came and taken rest here
after this we went to Ellora caves. we get a lot of knowledge about ancient architecture,sculptures made by kings.
after ellora tour we went to Bibi-ka-maqbara also known as mini tajmahal. it is like a copy of tajmahal. it was built by son of Aurangzeb, prince Azam Shah in memory of his mother , Rabia durrani. it was built in late 17th century.The comparison to the taj mahal has resulted in a general ignorance of the monument. This monument is also called the Dakkhani Taj (taj of deccan)
after such a long tour we stayed in a hotel of aurangabad.next morning we had a flight to delhi.this was first time when I got a chance to sit in aeroplane. it was a wonderful experience in aeroplane.from delhi we reached phillaur by train.
it was an unforgettable trip for me and my family.
