A very nice post, @Bansodesomnath. If you have reviewed the place, kindly share that as well.

Also, you can swap photo 01 and 03, just to make sure that the temple front view is visible for the viewers at topics layout. Just a suggestion.

Cheers!

Sir,

Today’s journey turned unexpectedly divine… by chance, I got to visit Pravara Sangam. On the way back, I stopped near this majestic entrance of Devgad and captured the moment :folded_hands: The vast blue sky with floating clouds and the grandeur of the gateway filled my heart with peace and serenity… truly, a holy place reveals its presence from a far.
