Best things to do in Pune

Pune Essentials

Pune’s heritage spans from the 8th-century rock-cut Pataleshwar Caves to the 19th-century Aga Khan Palace, a landmark of India's independence movement. The city’s Maratha legacy is preserved at Vishrambaug Wada and the hilltop Parvati temple complex. As an academic hub, Pune features the historic Fergusson College and the Film and Television Institute of India. Visitors can explore the vast collection at the Raja Dinkar Kelkar Museum, shop at the bustling Mahatma Phule Mandai market, or find panoramic views atop Vetal Tekdi, the city’s highest point.
