Krishna Ghat

The beautiful sprawling stone structure at the banks of Krishna River is believed to be constructed in year 1779 by Parshurambhau Patwardhan of Maratha Empire. This structure is 425 ft long and 102 ft wide. The structure has 42 steps between the river and a covered stone structure. There used to be an underground passageway from the back of the ghat opening up near the river. It’s believed that it was used by women in old days to reach the riverbank. There is a beautiful temple of lord Shiva in the middle of the river, which is connected to the entire ghat. There’s also another small temple between the ghat and a bridge nearby.
