City Map of Pune - Maharashtra
Pune exemplifies an indigenous Marathi culture and ethos in which education, arts and crafts and theatres are given its due recognition. Pune—formerly known as Poona, is located in the southwestern part of Maharashtra. It is just 170 km from Mumbai and has an altitude of 598 meters.
Dubbed “Queen of the Deccan,” Pune is the cultural capital of Maharashtra. Early Pune was a charming village inhabited by musicians and artists. What used to be a small village of local artists now rivals Delhi's economic stature because modern Pune is the 7th most industrialized metropolises of India.
