Things to do in Pune
Pune is the Deccan's cultural capital: the Peshwa old city, the student quarters, the Osho calm, the ghats on the doorstep. Quieter than Mumbai, prouder than Bangalore.
Photos for Pune are still on their way. Every listing below is real.
The old city
Dagdusheth Halwai Ganpati
Pune's beloved Ganesha temple: the gold, the crowds, the festival energy year-round. The city's spiritual centre.
The hills and gardens
Parvati Hill
The 108-step climb above the city: the temple, the museum, the panorama. Sunrise is the hour.
Osho Garden & Koregaon Park
The zen garden in the leafy quarter: meditation, the German Bakery nearby, the Pune calm.
The student streets
FC Road & MG Road
The student mile: bookshops, street food, the city's young energy. Evening is the hour.
