Bhopal, the Lake City, sits near some of India's most sacred sites — the 11th-century Bhojpur Shiva temple with its massive unfinished linga, the ancient Buddhist stupas of Sanchi 46km away, and Pachmarhi's Jatashankar cave temple. For Bhopal's residents, major festivals like Navratri, Mahashivratri and Ganesh Chaturthi all revolve around precise Muhurat timing.
Bhopal (77.4°E) sunrise is 21 min later than IST meridian — very close to Delhi's timing (77.2°E, 21 min). Bhopal and Delhi have nearly identical Rahu Kaal windows.
Astronomically precise Rahu Kaal timings for 25 major Indian cities.
