Bhuleshwar is a temple of Shiva situated around 55 - 60 kms from Pune and 10 km off Pune Solapur highway from Yawat.
There are classical carvings on the walls. It has been declared as a protected monument.
The temple is situated on a hill and was built in the 13th Century. The temple is unique as its architecture is Islamic from outside and appears more as a mosque than a temple due to its resemblance of circular tomb and minarets. The reason for this unique design is said to be done to protect the temple from being destroyed by invaders.
The temple also has an idol of Ganesha in female attire. It is popular as Lambodari or Ganeshwari.
