Visiting Pandharpur

Vitthal and Rukmini, the Chandrabhaga, and the temple’s published daily programme.

Bhakti Marg, Sangola Naka, Pandharpur, Maharashtra 413304

Pandharpur, in Solapur district, is the town of Lord Vitthal and Goddess Rukmini. The temple stands by the Chandrabhaga river. Ashadhi Ekadashi and Kartiki Ekadashi bring the largest wari crowds, so rooms should be requested early for those dates.

A day at the temple

The Shri Vitthal Rukmini Mandir Samiti publishes this daily programme. Confirm it on vitthalrukminimandir.org before you go, because the schedule can change on festival days.
