Shivmandir on Malshej Ghat - highway temple

This temple hidden under the rocks has a tiny industry around itself. There's a flower/garland seller, a tiny tea-shop under the rock and another little nook where a vendor sells cucumber. While several vehicles stop by, the ones who dont have the time, fling coins towards the temple ! For us, this temple heralds the arrival of Malshej Ghat, which is a just around the next bend. And not to mention the scores of monkeys, which claim their fair share of attention, biscuits and any other food that travellers spare :)
