Tourism

Tourism in Pune is anchored by its rich Maratha history and its legacy during the British Raj. The **Shaniwar Wada**, a grand 18th-century fortification, stands as a testament to the Peshwa empire. The **Aga Khan Palace** is a poignant historical landmark where Mahatma Gandhi was imprisoned during the Quit India Movement. Spiritual and architectural landmarks include the bustling **Dagdusheth Halwai Ganapati Temple** and the 8th-century rock-cut **Pataleshwar Cave Temple**. Museums such as the **Raja Dinkar Kelkar Museum** house incredible collections of Indian artifacts. For panoramic views and sunset spots, visitors often head to the heights of **Parvati Hill** or the historic **Sinhagad Fort** just outside the city.
