Yamai Temple, Hindu temple on hilltop in Aundh, India.
The black stone idol of Yamai Devi stands two meters tall inside the temple, depicting the goddess in a cross-legged position with four hands holding weapons.
The temple maintains strong connections with the Pant family, who ruled the former princely state of Aundh from 1699 until India's independence in 1947.
Many Maharashtrian families consider Yamai Devi their family deity, gathering at the temple during the annual Yatra celebration on Paush Purnima full moon day.
Visitors can reach the temple through stone steps starting at the hill base or drive directly to the parking area at the summit.
The temple features a solid gold crown weighing seven kilograms at its pinnacle, installed by Gayatridevi Pantpratinidhi of the former ruling family.
