Chandanwadi-Chira Bazaar Ganpati.

Chandanwadi Sarvajanik Ganeshustav Mandal
Chandanwadi, Chira Bazaar,
Mumbai.
In just four more days Ganesh Puja will begin on August 23.
Mumbai, the city that celebrates this festival with a special dhoom-dham, started gearing up for Ganesh Chaturthi months ago.
And from early this week the season's largest Ganpatis have been moving majestically down the streets as they are transported from the workshops, where they were created, to the pandals where they will be worshipped right till early September.

ASHTAVINAYAK TEMPLES

This is a set of eight Ganesha temples in situated in various districts of Maharshtra state in India.
The word ‘ashta’ means eight and Vinayak is one of the names of Lord Ganesha

The journey of these temples can be completed in two days and comfortably in three days

These Ganesh idols are believed to be ‘Swayambu’ i.e. arise by accident or with a purpose as mentioned in Hindu mythology.

Though this journey can start from any of the points the most comfortable one which I found to be was as follows

Starting from Kalyan & Panvel district
1) Pali ( Shri Ballaleshwar )
2) Mahad ( Shri Varad vinayak )
3) Theur ( Shri Chintamani )
4) Morgav ( Shri Mayureshwar )
5) Siddhetek ( Shri Siddhi vinayak)
6) Ranjan gav ( Shri Maha ganapathy)
7) Ozhar ( Shri Vigneshwar )
8) Lenyadri ( Shri Girijatmaj)
