Tourist Attractions
Siddheshwar temple
Fort from Solapur
- Siddheshwar temple. The temple is on an island in the lake in the center of town. It can be reached from the south on a causeway. It is well attended, but it doesn't last long Darshan-Snake. The temple has some newer marble additions and a platform-like porch with a corrugated iron roof and cast iron pillars. So that the vestibule roof is flush with the temple, a false gable with a station clock was added to perfect the waiting hall atmosphere.
- You can get around the lake to stroll. You can often see fruit bats that keep going round and round. Children fly kites on the bank.
- The Away in the northwest lies directly on the lake shore. This is followed by a small park. The interior of the fort is pretty plain. As in Paranda an inner fort was built into the not particularly high outer walls. Otherwise there is a badly battered temple Khajuraho-like motifs of inferior quality and a mosque in which the stolen temple stones were rebuilt.
