The principal temple recorded for Gaganbawada mandal is Siddivinayak Temple. No temple of this dedication is on record within Taliye Bk. itself.
Kolhapur's Mahalaxmi, called Ambabai here, is counted among the Shakti Peethas, and Navaratri is the temple's fullest season. The same shrine is known for Kirnotsav, when the setting sun's rays fall directly along the sanctum onto the idol on a few fixed days of the year.
