Maharashtra Jyotirlinga Temples
1. Trimbakeshwar Jyotirlnga, Nashik
Trimbakeshwar Jyotirlinga was the grandest temple on our list. Lord Shiva, Parvati, Lakshmi, and Saraswati are all said to reside here, according to the temple priest.
The Brahmagiri, Nilagiri, and Kalagiri hills surround the shrine. At the temple, Shiv, Vishnu, and Brahma are represented by three lingas (a recognisable form of Shiv). The temple tank, known as Amritavarshini (98 ft), is 28 m (92 ft) by 30 m in size.

The Bhimshankar Jyotirlinga in Pune, is located on the banks of the river Bhima. The temple, which was surrounded by natural beauty, was a delight for the senses, and a dip in the holy Bhima brought us spiritual serenity.

3. Grishneshwar Jyotirlinga, Aurangabad
The Grishneshwar Jyotirlinga, which is 20 km from Daulatabad, close to Aurangabad in Maharashtra, and is situated on the banks of an ancient pond named "Shivalay."
The temple is a significant pilgrimage place (linga of light) in the Shaiva style of Hinduism since it is regarded as the 12th or final Jyotirlinga. Nearly a km separates this pilgrimage destination from Ellora (formerly known as Verul), home to the Ellora Caves, a UNESCO World Heritage destination. It is situated around 300 kilometres (190 miles) east-northeast of Mumbai, Maharashtra, India, and about 30 kilometres (19 miles) north-west of Aurangabad.
