A holy place to visit with a miraculous power. The main idol is soo divine to eye catching to watch. You feel like seeing the idol again and again. A Blissful darshan we had. A must visit place. To be visited before 1: 00, that is the best time.
This place is sacred to Sri Dattaguru but it is seen that the area around Aju Baju is not as clean as it should be and it is an earnest request that the Mandal Trust should pay attention to this and improve it.
Blessed to visit Shree Kshetra. Visiting this temple more tha two decades. I just want to recommend the management to keep temple surround and clean and begger free.
Ganagapura is a kshetra (place of pilgrimage) associated with Sri Narasimha Saraswati Swami, the second incarnation of Dattatreya. According to the book Shri GuruCharitra, he promised that he would abide forever at Ganagapura. In the morning, he would bathe at the confluence of the Bhima and Amarja rivers.
The temple has some positive vibration when u enter the main temple you feel the positive energy. Though being Thursday the temple was crowded and we were literally pushed out but still could feel the vibration in that little time in temple
Visted on 2nd September 2023 on Saturday at 12 pm. The queue was long and at 12 pm they do aarthi. So they stopped the queue. If old people are visiting, be prepared to climb stairs for normal queue. Pandiths keep approaching for special Darshan (if you can afford they will take you from main door). Actual God's idol is visible only from a small window like structure, unlike regular temples. And they give you max 3 seconds to view the god, after which they will push you out of the line. Temple is not maintained well. Lots of spider webs, dust etc is observed throughout the queue lines.
Lord Sri nrushimha saraswati - Dattatray temple, best place to visit. If Q is too long then go by paid Q line with just 100rs per head. You are allowed to visit very close to paduka of diety.
First we have to take bath in holy river bheema sangem, In main temple We darshan the nirguna paduka, I prefer normal days to visit temple before we go on occasion of Full moon day the people more no management will take care about that, please take care of yourself and heavy rush 110/- rupees Q line there, no arrangements all most 80% Telugu people coming for darshan, about 4-5hrs for darshan time Jai Guru Data Jai Guru Data
Shre Datta shetra Ganagapur very ancient place of Datta guru. But only disappointed is i am visiting since last 15 Yrs but never seen its clean. But still place you feel awesome when u visit. There are stay options available as per the location
Do visit for your mental peace. Do not come in talks of pujari to perform poojas and vip entry. Its a business out there.they look at you and decide packages.ranging from 2.5k to 15k. Beware of this fraud. Go because u r a lover of God. You shall feel His presence, go with good heart! Do attend mrng 11.30am aarti.
Due to the competent negligence of the police and the temple committee towards the future, Darshan is becoming a problem, especially for women and children.
It is very serene and pious surrounded with Bhima River and many Mutts of Gurus. We visited Sri Ganapathi Sachidananda swamy Mutt which is under Renovation. The idol of Sri Dattatreya Swamy in the premises is superb buy still under finishing stage. Very powerful place of Sadgurus. Best pilgrimage place for everyone. Worth visiting.
The temple is situated at the hilltop and the idol has three heads of the Trinity Hindu gods: Brahma, Vishnu and Maheshwara. This holy place was called as Dhanpur in Indian Puranik Kal. It is considered as one of the foremost places to be visited by Lord Dattatreya devotee.
Here Dattatreya god stayed for long period and this place is very punya place Here three rivers have joined that is called (Triveni Sangam) nice to see the place
Great auspicious environment around temple the name f the temple dattatreya means three devotes i.e. Incarnation of Bramha, vishnu and shiva at once so for non maharashtrian you should visit the temple if you ever passes by the area.
Darshana was very quick and well arranged. Only draw back of this place is people are behind your money if you are not aware of the place they will take huge money for minimal service.
This is what happened to us as soon as we came out of parking lot some random guys came saying this is aarti time darshana will take 4-5 hours if take our service darshan will be done in 30 mins. We didn't take their service we went on our own and darshna took less than 30mins.
If you need any help with darshna and pooja ask temple authority they are very helpful.
Temple is nice, but Maintenance is worst. Thousands of people are visiting Temple. Karnataka state have to maintain the Temple like Tirupathi. Temple sorroudings very worst and also they don't have proper Roads. I am anable to stand in Temple premises, that much worst sorroudings. In Temple also they did not cleaning. We are seeing small temples also maintenng very good. They don't have Rooms for Ladies to change the dress after bathing in Sangam. One room is there with full of mud. I shocked. What Karnataka Government is doing? Veryyyy shame. If they maintain neat n clean many of people vl Visit. There people also don't know neatness.
Popular Dattatreya temple in Kalburgi/Gulbarga. Food-No problem (annadan everywhere). Accomodation costly on poornima/amavas. Three consecutive Poonam visits will bring good changes is the belief.
I feel phycologically/otherwise better.after visits.
Very peaceful and serene devotion place for guru Dattatreya devotees. With a holy dip in the river sangam and darshan of sangameshwara temple, shani and kalleshwar temple. Gangapur trip is complete.
Around temple so many beggers. Inside temple frequently it was asked for contribution for annadana, but I have not seen that by temple managment over there. Hygiene need to be maintained.
Gangapur is prominent place which is known for Datta Mandir. Lakhs of devotees, pilgrims visit this temple from Maharashtra n Karnataka. God's idol is very prestin n beutiful. It is one of the pilgrimage place for devotees in Maharashtra. Cleanliness is one of the issue. I request everyone to please maintain cleanliness over there n give contribution from your side to maintain hygiene, beauty n sacredness of the place. There is triveni sangam of river in village. Very beautiful river. Please do not pollute river water.
Very popular religious place for Hindus. The presiding deity is ceremoniously worshipped by huge number of visitors from Karnataka and Maharashtra. Cramped parking space. Narrow road leading to the temple. Good connectivity by bus and trains.
Holy place wth full of positivity.should visit once in lifetime to get blessings.peaceful place near to bus stand.we reached here after akkalkot darshan in a taxi which was wth same prices of bus.sangam place was awesome.water was fresh.dhyan place was neatly arranged.ganagapur was a wholesome spiritual place to visit wth family.
Most powerful Dattatreya temple. Villagers call you for lunch. And they believe till today Dattatreya will come every day in pilgrims rupam to bless Annadata.
It's good to seek blessings of Lord and. Temple has special darshanam were they make kshirabhishek to spatik Linga. So u need to meet Any pujari. There so he allows u go directly into temple
Yeah it's nice temple of gurudatta.trimukhi datta mandir is there. It was good relief.lodges are good.bhaktnivas are not clean because of people coming there.
There will be huge rush during Purnima days. The management and related people and priests are encashing this rush hours by taking bribe of ₹ 500 per person to enter into temple directly through other ways. No tickets.no proper cue lines.
Most Powerful place, so many piligrims, But Govt has to take steps to maintain cleanliness around the temple, and especially parking place is too much polluted.and toilets and wash rooms are not maintained,
Swamy padukalu. Main Must see.dont pay any money to.pujaris. 1st time u may go free darsan. Before 2 o clock. We must visit temple to see padukalu. Evening we cont see padukalu.
This place of swamy dattatreya is open for padhuke darshan from morning 3am to 2 pm, padhuke darshan is must so visiting this place make at this time after 2pm it is only idol darshan of swamy dattatreya
The surrounding areas are very unclean. Even the temple floor has a thick coat of grime. You will have to carefully wash your feet without letting your bathroom soiled with dark dirt. The food outside the temple was heavenly.
Temple is very nice. There are a lot of Pujaris waiting for devotees thronging from all parts of the country to do the sewa of the Prominent Lord here, Lord Dattatreya. However, we did not do any sewa but just got the darshan of the Lord.
This place is about 45minutes drive from Gulbarga/Kalburgi. Road is good. Parking place for vehicles is also available near the temple. There a number of vegetarian restaurants near the temple that will provide food till 10-10.30pm. We had our dinner at one veg restaurant named Sarot veg restaurant. We ordered for Jain food and we got the same. Food was good to taste.
It was awesome.crowd on poornima day.biksha has to be taken. You get annadanam at annadanam trust building too at 1.00 pm. Roads and connectivity is good. Water in river is gone.
Temple is good and ancient place with good coperative staff of the trust.and also the Meal Mahaprasad is so nice. Just aware at the time of accomodation the hotel staff will take more money from travelers.
One of the holiest places to visit during poornima/Datta Jayanti etc, Crowded during the mentioned days. Although funds/donations are offered by many devotees and people, temple and the surroundings are not maintained clean. Accommodation is the biggest challenge. Overly rated lodges. All the shops near the temple are business oriented so much that they won't allow you to check quality of the commodity. Instead, they call u names n use slangs in Marathi and Hindi. Worst experience. Business oriented /commercial.
Can be well managed. Police officers their dont control the crowd during occasions like shree Datta jayanti. Cleanliness is not at all seen around. Such a spiritual and important place but management is not at all good.
One of the Powerful place of Lord Dattrateya. Ganagapur was the Karma Bhumi of Lord Dattarey. You will get peace of mind over here. It would be better to come by car early in the morning around 3 am. Stay in Temple around 1.00pm and go back to Solapur for stay.
Too many mediators just trying to trap devotees and misleading with there money thrust, if going thru mediators then u will somehow can manage to get glimpse of darshan of paduka if not it will be just pushing devotees no matter they are ladies or of any age group for that matter. It all happens in front of police people who are also highly involved. Either government or the temple management needs to make sure no space for these money driven mediators and the devotees will have good darshan.
