Lord Shrimant Ganpati Bappa Devalai,Rawai, Phuket, Thailand

Lord Shrimant Ganpati Bappa Devalai, is a prominent Hindu temple dedicated to Lord Ganesha located in Rawai, Phuket, Thailand.

Nestled in Rawai, Phuket, Lord Shrimant Ganpati Bappa Devalai is more than a place of worship — it is a spiritual and cultural bridge between India and Thailand. Inspired by the 132-year-old Shreemant Dagadusheth Halwai Ganapati temple in Pune, this temple carries the legacy of faith, devotion, and community.

The original temple in Pune was built by Dagadusheth Halwai, a sweet seller and wrestler who, after losing his sons to a plague epidemic, dedicated his faith to Lord Ganesha, the remover of obstacles. His famous confectionery shop, Dagdusheth Halwai Sweets, still operates today, standing as a testament to his enduring legacy.

It was at this temple that Lokmanya Tilak urged the public to join, leading to a ten-day celebration in 1893 which now one of India’s most vibrant celebrations, surpassing even Diwali in grandeur. Today, this spiritual tradition continues in Phuket, where the temple offers a sanctuary of blessings, cultural heritage, traditional, spiritual and divine peace.
