Jagdamb Jagdamb (जगदम्ब जगदम्ब)



View (Silhouette) of the temple of goddess Bhavani as seen from the path leading up from the Main Entrance (Maha Darwaaza - महा दरवाजा). In 1661, when Chhatrapati Shivaji Maharaj could not visit the temple of the goddess Bhavani at Tuljapur, he decided to dedicate a temple to the goddess at this fort itself. The temple is located on the eastern side of the lower fort. Seen here is the outline of the temple courtyard and the Deep Mala (दीप माला) as it towers above the courtyard walls.
