Named after its founder, Ahmad Nizam Shah I, the district is home to some of India’s most revered spiritual sites and formidable forts. From the world-renowned Shirdi Sai Baba Temple to the unique Shani Shingnapur, where houses traditionally have no doors, Ahmednagar is a major pilgrimage hub that draws millions of seekers every year.
