The Ambabai darshan day runs on reported windows — from ~4:00 AM (Kakad aarti 4:30) through the day to the ~10:00 PM Shej aarti, with an evening aarti around 6:30 — because the trust’s own site is JS-blocked.
Two things make this darshan special: the Kirnotsav (the sun visiting the goddess twice a year, reported), and the senior priority darshan with ramps and wheelchairs (reviewer-reported). Checked 02 October 2026.

The Kirnotsav
Twice yearly — reported ~31 January–2 February and ~9–11 November — the setting sun’s rays align through the temple’s arch and reach the idol for roughly 15–20 minutes from ~6 PM. The event draws large crowds; claim a spot early or watch the live streams the trust runs.
