Kakhandaki village, situated in Bijapur taluk, is located approximately 33 kilometers away from the district headquarters and 11 kilometers from the proposed Babaleshwar Taluk. The village is renowned for its vibrant festivities, notably the "KARAHUNNIME" festival and Sri Guru Mahipathi Dasar Aradhane (The festival happens on chatti Amavasya of every year). The KARAHUNNIME (KARI) festival is celebrated one week after the full moon in the month of June and draws a large crowd. A highlight of this festival is the traditional "TAMING OF OX" ritual, where bullocks or oxen are adorned with ropes and managed by skilled team members, all dressed in a uniform attire. The following day, Okuli is observed as part of the Sri Hanuman Jatra Mahotsava festivities. Witnessing KARI and Okali is an exhilarating experience, attracting an audience of around 8-10 thousand spectators.
Nearby attractions include the Sri Haralayyana Gunda and Uppaladinni Sri Sangameshwar Temples. Sri Haralayyana Gunda offers a serene ambiance, nestled amidst picturesque hills, verdant foliage, and natural springs. It holds significance as a spiritual destination, having been chosen by numerous saints, gurus, and seers for their penance, meditation, and tapasya. And the place is also known for Shri GuruMahipati Swami Temple.
