Amazing Shani Shingnapur



A small visit to a place called Shani Shingnapur located in Maharashtra, about 80 Kms from Aurangabad, forced me to start writing a blog about truly amazing facts about India.
India, is truly a united place of millions of cultures and traditions which makes it unique in each sense.
Shani Shingnapur, is famous for a shrine of rock about 5 ft tall, which symbolizes God Shani.
The interesting fact about the place is that no house or shop in this village is locked ever.. In other words, there are no doors in the shops and houses. And interestingly, there are no thefts being reported from this place... Because, the people believe that any act of theft, will be punished by God Shani himself and the person committing such act will get blind..
