Hi :waving_hand:

Pune local guides invite you to a vibrant evening of pandal hopping across Pune.

We’ll use the Ask Maps feature in Google Maps to discover the most beautiful pandals, and even ask for pit stops for chai and snacks between visits!

All the while, soak in a rich video walk, capturing videos and uploading them to Google Maps… ! :partying_face:
