The Mahalakshmi temple in Dahanu, I am going to talk about here, is only about 90 kms.

Walking in line Syambhu Mahalakshmi Temple, Dahanu Maharashtra Interestingly, Maharashtra is blessed with two other temples with the same name aka the Mahalakshmi Temple - one in Kolhapur and the other Mahalakshmi Temple in Mumbai itself – both of which...
