Gurusthan

Gurusthan is Shirdi's most ancient spiritual site — a small roadside shrine beneath a neem tree marking the spot where young Sai Baba was first discovered as a sixteen-year-old in deep meditation. The original neem tree and the stone on which Baba sat are preserved here and venerated by millions. A top Shirdi pilgrimage and sightseeing destination. Free entry; located near the main temple complex. Predating all other Shirdi shrines, Gurusthan holds a quiet, foundational significance for devoted pilgrims.
