It was really hot in Akkalkot But Less Than Nagpur.

Around 1:30 we reached Gangapur Karnataka, we choose Dandwate Ashram for staying. The room was Good with two beds with air cooler. it had a temple, big ground for playing, slide, swing, sea-saw the place Had Really Good Ambiance was really good in that budget. you also get to see a view of the bhima river but since It's summer it was all dry. Our relative had already brought food from home also there was a free meal (mahaprasad) served by the temple at that time. so we brought a leftover meal( sambar and rice). We didn't need to go to the hotel. the sambar was delicious, we had our lunch, and took some rest.

Visiting Sangam Datta Temple Gangapur

At 6:00 pm we got ready and decided to go to Sangam Dutta temple first which was around 3 km from our stay. the atmosphere was really spiritual, the man outside temple gave us thread it was for 10 /- RS and told us to tie it to tree.i tied it to the tree did the parikrama. the only bad thing of the place I saw was if you walk towards a big tree which was outside all the garbage and the similar threads were dumped there otherwise it is really great place.since it was summertime the river was all dried but if you wish to take a bath, they give a bucket of water for around 20 RS /-, after taking the darshan we headed to temple Cause we were Getting Late for Aarti

   At 8:00 pm we reach the temple, there was a parking place towards the left of the temple in some meters away, so we don’t have to worry about that. so as soon as I enter I saw there was a thing from where people were hanging, I don’t want to talk about those people cause it will start a debate. Whether they are mentally challenged or Possessed. We took darshan easily there was not much crowd. After that Aarti started there was a palkhi in which they placed the god and they were doing pradakshna, it was a very good experience at Ganagapur Dattatreya Temple.

We had our dinner at Dandwate Ashram it was super tasty. they provided good Meal at Price Of 90 RS \-.
We woke up at 6:00 Am and again Took the darshan at temple And we Leave for Sangam As the water Of Sangam Was totally Dry. we bought a bucket of water which cost around 20 Rs/- and we Leave For Akkalkot
