Where to stay in Warje
Each area has its own feel; here's who each one suits.

About Warje
What are the main landmarks in Warje?
The Maharshi Karve Memorial is Warje's one marked landmark. It honours Maharshi Karve, the social reformer whose name the neighbouring Pune quarter of Karvenagar also carries, so the suburb's single commemorative site points outward to a figure much larger than the streets around it. Warje's remaining ground is housing, the ordinary fabric a village leaves behind after Pune grew over it.
What is the history of Warje?
Warje was a village that Pune eventually surrounded, and in 2001 the municipal boundary was redrawn to take the settlement in rather than leave it outside. The village name is what Pune kept. Maharshi Karve gives the suburb its one commemorative name.
The Maharshi Karve Memorial carries it, a mark out of Maharashtra's history of social reform set down on ground that had been a village.
Where is Warje?
Warje covers built-up ground on Pune's western side, a former village edge that runs continuous with Karvenagar and the rest of the city.
