History of Shri Siddhivinayak Temple

Shri Siddhivinayak Temple was established in the year 1801 by Laxman Vithu and Deubai Patil. The temple is situated at the SK Bole Marg in Prabhadevi, Mumbai. It is considered one of the richest temples in the world with an approximate annual donation of 150 million. However, this was not always the story. Initially, the temple was just a small structure that was constructed over the year into the grandiose it is today. Siddhivinayak Temple's history narrates tales of various renovations and full-filled wishes.

One of the eccentricities about the idol of Lord Ganesha that is in this temple is that the idol is actually a carving of a single black stone into the shape of Lord Ganesha. Another thing that is peculiar about the idol is that the trunk is faced right side which is usually faced on the left side. Even though the temple is almost always packed with devotees, the place offers a surreal fiesta during the festival of Ganesha Chaturthi. This festival takes place at the start of September. The temples host a special ceremony during this much-awaited festival.
