Mumbai's only Sun Temple, Shri Surya Mandir, was built in 1899 and stands in the bustling area of Bhuleshwar. Every morning, the temple begins the day with the sacred 'Prabhat Surya Havan' and Aarti, accompanied by the divine sound of Shankh Naad, filling hearts with positivity during 'Arunoday.'
This stone-carved temple, inspired by Vedic architecture, offers a peaceful retreat from Mumbai's fast-paced life.
Inside the sanctuary, a white marble idol of Bhagwan Surya sits on a one-wheeled chariot, drawn by seven horses symbolizing the seven colors of light.
Surya is accompanied by his wives, representing the balance of light and shadow in life, while Arun serves as the divine charioteer.
Managed by "The Harjivan Vasonji Charitable Trust", Shri Surya Mandir is a spiritual gem that welcomes all who seek tranquility and divine blessings in the heart of the city.
