Nice and wel managed place.

The Very Historical and beutiful place.The structure of temple is crafted in unique way to represent the Hindu culture. People from all over the country visit here to be blessed by goddess Mahalaxmi devi.

No rush due to Covid. Outside darshan

Temple is closed due to lockdown.

This temple of the deity named Ambabai is famous all around Maharashtra. I have been to this temple three times and my recent visit was in March 2021. The darshan has been allotted fix timings after the pandemic and the mandir is closed for darshan from 1 to 3 PM. The best time to visit would be during the weekdays.

The temple is well organized and maintained. Huge queue is observed during weekends. Due to covid they arent accepting any offerings of flowers and blouse piece. The goddess is beautifully decorated and worshipped. The temple is also surrounded with various shops of kolhapuri chappals, bags etc.

Very nice ancient temple.Good darishan of Shree Mahalaxmi.Little bit crowded on Sunday.Having lodges for staying near by.

Shri Mahalaxmi Temple is a sacred and shrine place for all Hindus in Maharashtra and entire south India. Its believed that Goddess Lakshmi was little upset with Bhagwan Vishnu as Balaji at Tirupati and she moved to Kolhapur and to say her sorry Bhagwan Vishnu came to Kolhapur.The temple is ancient and very beautiful. Every wall and its dome is carved in black lava stone with several Vedic sculptures and story telling arts. The temple entrance is East way however, due to traffic and Covid19 measure its now starting from West. If you want to get closer Darshan go from West Mahadwar.The temple is not maintained as its cleanliness is considered as all pillers and floor were dusty. Exterior surrounding are clean though. Unnecessary shops allowed inside Temple premise are denting Temples beauty. These shops must be shifted outside of the temple boundary. Priests are available for so many important rituals and Puja offerings but the temple doesnt hosts much place for all such religious activities due to place taken by shops.Devasthan trust havent provided bare minimum facilities like Footware racks, clean drinking water and toilets. Disabled people cant enter with wheel chair and nobody in the trust is bothered of it. No.place for devotees to have Prasad or small break to meditate available.Such a shrine place doesnt seems to be managed by sensible and capable people. Overall experience about facilities is pathetic but if its about seeing Goddess Mahalaxmi and beauty of Temple, it worth being there.

Temple is clean and peaceful...But beware of the extra pandits whom you have to pass before you reach the main temple...The temple authority have fixed the railings in a way that you have to go through these extra pandits who ask for donations...

The Mahalaxmi Temple is one of the most famous temples of the maharastra, India. It is dedicated to Mahalakshmi the central deity of Devi Mahatmyam. The temple was built in 1831 by Dhakji Dadaji (1760–1846), a Hindu merchant.

Divine place. Goddess of wealth Mahalaxmi recides here. Do visit early morning at 6.00am to have pleasent best views of the temple area. It is well manged in covid time. No rush at morning. Peaceful darshan.Do visit and get Blessed.

No doubt its a awesome place to visit feel blessed.Request a devotees not to carry any thing such as flower and Ot as they will put each and every thing in a dustbin you are not allowed to carry till temple.

Nice spiritual place to visit at Kolhapur.Proper precautions are take by temple committee.Must visit place for family

Gods Heavy Blessings & Great Historical & Humanity Learning place

We were here in July and the time taken from entry into the queue to exit was approximately an hour and 15 mins. It is an unassuming temple given its hallowed status. The route the queue takes allows for a long gaze at the edifice from which much can be gleaned if one is familiar with Hindu iconography.

Very good place.

Loved it. Will not suggest to go in summer.

Due to pendamic we couldnt explore the inside of the temple but have been there before and its fabulous experience. The organisers inside are doing a fabulous job but its a bit messed up outside. Lots of crowd. Almost no parking space. You may want to book a car on rent or hire a cab or rickshaw just to visit the vicinity during this pendamic. Remaining 2 stars would be if theres any development in organisation out side for proper darshan and visitors parking facility near the temple in future.

I just love this place. It is temple of karvir vasini ambabai. You must visit to this temple when you are in the kolhapur.

Most beautiful and spiritual place in Kolhapur to visit.

Beautiful temple 😊

The Shri Mahalakshmi (AmbaBai) Temple of Kolhapur in Maharashtra, India, is one of the 18 Shakti Peethas listed in various puranas of Hinduism. The temple is of special religious significance and is considered to be a place where Shakti (Energy of the Supreme Lord) manifests and as one of only six sacred houses of Shakti where worshipers can either be freed from or granted their longings.She is fondly called Ambabai which means Divine Mother.

Was not crowded and darshan line was far from actual godess statue

Praceful place, visit from Ambabai Dwar for low rush

Beautiful temple and atmosphere . Tho only mukhdarshan from outside gate this time due to Covid

Nice and such a beutiful place

Good but no celebrate temple pooja daily

Mahalaxmi temple situated in Kolhapur city. Its is said that temple is built in 7th century. Later on many invaders destructed the constructions. Its is very famous among devotees of goddess Laxmi and most of the devotees visit mahalaxmi temple all around the year. During Navratri festival Kiranotsav is celebrated when sun rays of sun fall directly on deity at sunrise.

Most crowded place. now a days entry from ghati daravaja is closed due to construction.

Extremely blissful place especially in the evenings due to the decorative lights and the weather. In the evenings there clothing and footwear shops also open for shopping and stuff, so the atmosphere around is very festive and joyous. I was told by one of the tea vendor nearby that the those shops are not open in the mornings. Although i am not quite sure about that. Enjoy your trip!

Shree Mahalaxmi temple is a very sacred place for Hindus. Temple is well maintained and has very beautiful stone sculptures. Temple it self is very huge. Definite place to visit.

Its a famous Mahalakshmi TempleThere a ritual saying you should visit Kolhapur Ambabai Temple after Tirupati Balaji

Visit Date: 25th Dec 2020Reached in evening around 6.30pm. There was rush and queue was long, so we lost hope and thought to have mukh darshan. But then one vendor told us that in 30min, you all will get darshan. So we started at 7pm in queue and 7.35pm we were out of temple.Darshan was very nice, Temple trust is not taking any offering of Coconut, cloths, garlands etc. so refrain from buying the same.Covid precautions has been taken care properly, thanks to Kolhapur Police force. They are there to guide you and constantly reminding for Mask & Social distancingTips: epass are available, we came to know at the end of the queue, so get it and there is direct entry from other side of gateFamous things to buy: Just outside of temple there are markets for - Kolhapuri chappals, Masale (Spices), Kandi pede, Maharashtrian phete, Swords and variety of cloths.Nearby temples: 1. Audumbar Temple (1hr 30min), 2. Narsoba Wadi (1hr 3omin) 3. Paijarwadi - Sadguru Datta Chile temple (must visit as it is Tortoise shape temple, 1hr )

Beautiful place to visit. Everything can b covered within 2-3days in kolhapur. People over here are very polite, they respect tourists and talk with respect. Auto rickshaw is very worthy... They charge you with just 30 rs for all near by places..if u wanna visit far they turn the meter on. Cabs are available.. Cool trip to visit..!!

Currently closed but u can see the devi from outside the main gate....a lot of rush....no social distancing....it was as if there was no pandemic going on

Wonderful place. Must visit. It is located in the heart of the city so there is a parking problem.

Mahalaxmi temple gate, holly place of Kolhapur, there is lots of holly places to visit.

The epitome of inner peace with the goddess showering her blessings and protection in this year of repayment of bad karma for whole of humanity...

Whole city is so beautiful, amazing infrastructure, just wow...

Wonderful temple once in a lifetime need to get a dharsan. Well arrangements durning COVID19

Blessed after being here. Those who are traveling please note that the temple gates are still closed. That means we cant enter the temple campus. However from main gate we can see Maa Ammbe.

Very unique architecture with black stone load bearing stone structure, very ancient temple of laxmi devi, there is free prasad food or Bhandara available which is very delicious ofcourse, some time is in queue required for devi darshan, its a oldest landmark of kolhapur, one can buy Kolhapuri jwellery and Kolhapuri chappal in market around

As off 15 sep 2021 , the temple is temporarily closed , ur not allowed inside the temple u have to pray to goddess from the gate itself , the goddess can be visible for gate itself

Worth visiting the temple with old and artistic sculpture all around.

Must visit temple at Kolhapur. Good management of temple committee in handling the crowd.Temple is very much rich in its Archiecture. And there is Annaprasada which starts from 12.00 pm and its quite far away from temple. For Annaprasad, devotees have to walk for 1.5 Km just beside the temple.Very much well maintained and very hygiene place at Annaprasad. We were surprsining to see its cleaniness during this pandemic situation. Liked very much. Really good temple to visit.

The temple is accessible from different roads with multiple gates for entry. Peaceful, divine place with superb architectural design. Lights falling on pillars in the evening enhances its beauty.

Divine place full of positivity after looking at the idol we get attached to mother goddess 🙏

The most significant temple .... Just caan feel the energetic vibrance in the area of temple... And mostly the construction is ancient with highly complicated ancient designs... Please get some time when you visit to just observe the construction...

A temple from heritage times with remarkable architecture and impeccable designs on the pillars and outer walls of the temple. Holy place of Goddess Lakshmi.
