A vibrant city, a potpourri where the past meets the present, Pune is known as the cultural capital of Maharashtra. Pune has a rich cultural past and an equally vivacious present and future. From the ancient rock cut Pataleshwar temple to the fast coming up International Convention Center and the Software Parks of Pune, say it all.

One can well experience the cultural diversity of Pune by visiting the Old city i.e Kasba Peth, and the upmarket Koregaon Park and Camp area of Pune. The homes in Kasba peth are an example of the ancient Vada architecture in contrast to the ultra modern residences in the Camp and Koregaon Park area. From Shopping Malls to Marketyard, Multiplexes to Museums, Software Parks to Forts, and a variety of Temples, Mosques, Church, Pune has it all.

Pune, by all means can be termed as a cosmopolitan city, since it has a mix of all Indian religions happily living together. Besides this the construction of the Mumbai-Pune Expressway has left Mumbai just 2 hrs away from Pune thus increasing the influence of the Mumbai Culture on Pune.

The Festivities of Ganesh Chaturthi, Diwali, Dussera to Ramzan, Id, Easter, Christmas and New Year are all celebrated together with equal Pomp and galore, with citizens of all ages participating with equal enthusiasm. Pune truly represents the Rich and Diverse culture of India and is a living example of the thought 'Unity in Diversity'.
