Vajreshwari Temple, Hindu temple on Mandagiri hillock in Thane district, India
The temple complex features stone walls, a drum house entrance, and fifty-two steps leading to the main shrine containing multiple deity statues.
The temple moved to its current location after Portuguese forces destroyed the original structure at Gunj, with reconstruction completed in 1739 by Chimaji Appa.
The central shrine houses a saffron-colored statue of Goddess Vajreshwari, holding a sword and gada, alongside deities Renuka, Saptashrungi Mahalakshmi, and Kalika.
Located 75 kilometers from Mumbai, the temple remains open from 5:00 AM to 9:00 PM, with regular ceremonies including morning and evening worship services.
Twenty-one natural hot water springs surround the temple grounds, where visitors participate in ceremonial bathing as part of their religious practices.
