Pilgrimage & Picnic

World's First Sai Heritage Village

Baba's blessings and nature's goodness, side by side. Walk through a living record of Shirdi village life during Sai Baba's time — a place made for both prayer and play.

The Experience

A village frozen in Baba's time

Sai Heritage Village offers a unique combination of Baba's blessings and nature's goodness — of pilgrimage and picnic, together in one walk.

It recreates the life of Baba and the villagers of Shirdi during his time. Every major event of Baba's life, his leela, and the daily rhythm of Shirdi's villagers are rendered here as life-size statue scenes — Baba's Palkhi procession, Baba serving food to devotees, Baba medicating the needy and the poor, and many more moments brought to life.

All of it is set beneath a plantation of Sapota (Chiku) trees that are over a hundred years old — shade that has watched this story unfold for a century.
