I first time visited Mahalakshmi temple Mumbai today , 20
Oct 2015 on the occasion of Navratri festival. The temple is very nice. The
beautiful view of Arabian Sea behind the temple is breath-taking. The temple is
situated at a height of about 80 feet from Ground. There are three Devi Idols
viz Mahakali, Mahalakshmi and Mahasaraswati in the Sanctum Sanctorum. There is
nice facility of keeping your footwear outside.
Behind the temple you need to descend
around 50 steps or so to see the Sea near the temple. Just before the sea there
are two temples one Darya Maruti temples and other Darya Ganesh temple.
The idols of Maruti and Ganehs in these temples are very very beautiful.
