India /Maharashtra /Thane /Vajreshwari

Vajreshwari is a beautiful town and attracts tourists from all over the region. The existence of 3 rivers Tejsa, Tansa and Surya in the vicinity adds to the tourism value of the place. Vajreshwari finds a proud mention even in the ancient “Puran” (Hindu holy books) for being consecrated by the presence of Rama as well as Parshuram. Vadvali as it was known earlier, the place was renamed after reincarnation of Vajrayogini. There is also another story of the place being named after Vajreshwari when she swallowed the vajra (thunderbolt / power bolt) of Lord Indra when he hurled the same at the wise sage Muni Vashishtha.
