  • On the national highway near Chiplun near the village savarde there is a place called Deravan. In the recent years , this Shivshrushti on the shivsmarath gad. These sculptures are created by the very dedicated artist Ganesh Parkar.These are related to the whole life of Shivaji Mahraj. These sculptures are very lively. It seems that the mavalas are standing in front of us. For this creation the artist spend his valuable 15yrs and 1 crore Rupees were spend . On the entrance the mavalas riding on the horses and two giant elephants welcome us after entering inside there is a ststue of Shivaji Maharaj riding on horse. This statue is so lively that we feel this horse will jump and go away. This statues Saint Namdev,Saint Tukaram ,Gomata, naming ceremony of Shivrai, then the scene of oath of Rohideshwar, discomfiture of Shahistekhan ,assassination of Afzal Khan, Baji prabhu and the memorable battle of Pavankhind(Ghodkhind) Jijamata pointing at Konkana fort and lastly Shivarajyaabhishek ceremony i.e. Shivaji coronation ceremony. To get the entry to see inside this miracle everyone has to wear a proper Indian Dress only.Because this is not just an Exhibition but a Sanskar Kendra ,so mind it.
