A friend of mine is coming to Pune for the first time. I need to plan a sight seeing tour for her and she has only 8-9 hours. Which spots, locations would you recommend.

Thanks.

the first that comes to mind is Parvati, from there you can have a quick tour of Saras Baug which is nearby if that interests you, they had a Museum of Ganapati statues behind the Temple there, but not sure if its there now! the Laxmi Temple oppsite to it also worth visitng!
