‘Chhatrapati
Shivaji
Maharaj
Statue’
is
located
at
Shivaji
Chowk
on
Bhausingji
Road
in
Kolhapur.
This
marvelous
statue
is
situated
at
the
centre
of
Shivaji
chowk.
Every
year
on
19th
February,
‘Shivajayanti
Day’
is
celebrated
here
on
the
occasion
of
birth
anniversary
of
the
great
emperor
Chhatrapati
Shivaji
Maharaj.
It
is
celebrated
with
huge
enthusiasm,
youngsters
play
lazim
and
perform.
The
statue
of
‘Chhatrapati
Shivaji
Maharaj’
stands
erect
and
is
very
attractive,
it
is
covered
with
decorative
wall
on
which
hang
the
portraits
based
on
the
scenes
of
bravery
of
‘Chhatrapati
Shivaji
Maharaj’.
The
Shivaji
Chowk
is
named
so
because
of
this
‘Chhatrapati
Shivaji
Maharaj
Statue’.
‘Chowk’
means
an
intersection
of
4
roads,
one
road
goes
in
the
direction
of
‘Kolhapur
Municipal
Corporation’,
second
goes
to
‘Bindu
chowk’,
third
goes
to
‘Bhavani
Mandap’
and
fourth
goes
to
‘Papachi
Tikati’.
The
famous
‘Shri
Mahalaxmi
Temple’
of
Kolhapur
is
only
1
Km
away
from
this
place.
So
take
a
moment
to
see
this
beautiful
statue
while
visiting
‘Shri
Mahalaxmi
Temple’
when
you
are
in
Kolhapur.
