Lenyadri is home to the Girijatmaja temple, one of the Ashtavinayak temples dedicated to Lord Ganesha. This temple is unique because it is carved into a cave on a hillside and represents Ganesha as Girijatmaja, meaning 'born to Parvati'. Siddhivinayak is in Mumbai, Vigneshwar is at Ozar, and Varadvinayak is at Mahad.
