You'll be glad you did. It took 12 years, over $100 million, and 12,500 volunteers to build this architectural wonder, and it's incredible having the second largest BAPS temple in the world right here in New Jersey, second only to the one in New Delhi, India! From the moment we arrived at the main entrance, I felt transported to a different world. Everyone in our group was in awe, and I couldn't stop taking photos. Every detail deserves admiration, from the massive statue of Nilkanth Varni at the entrance plaza and the tranquil courtyard water features, to the main Akshardham Mandir itself with its countless intricate indoor and outdoor carvings. A few helpful tips for your visit: - Welcome Center: Be sure to catch the informative intro video. There are two theaters with staggered showtimes, so just hop into whichever one has the shorter wait. - Dress Code: They enforce a strict modest dress code (e.g. shoulders and knees must be covered). Don't worry if you forget - they offer free wraps at the door so you aren't turned away. I wore shorts, and they provided a sarong to wear over them. - Footwear: You will need to take off and check your shoes before entering the Mandir. - Amenities: Near the exit, there is a cafeteria, a dessert shop, and a museum (we didn't get a chance to try the food this time, but it's great to have options). With ongoing expansions still underway, this magnificent landmark will only get better. Absolutely 5 stars for me!

I visited the Sri Mahaperiyava Temple in Flemington, NJ for the first time and felt truly blessed…read more It's a Shaivite temple where Mahaperiyava is revered as an avatar of Lord Shiva. Inside, the Kamakshi Ammavaru mandapam immediately caught my attention -- the walls are adorned with small, beautiful idols of Mahakali, Rajarajeshwari, Ardhanareeshwari, Varahi, and Bhairavam. The Kamakshi Ammavaru vigraham is very small, yet incredibly divine and captivating. There is another building next to the temple that includes an auditorium hall and a basement. In the basement, annadanam is served on weekends at 12:30 pm by dedicated volunteer devotees.

Parking space is humongous and can never be a problem. I look forward to seeing this temple getting completed and see His divine form soon in the new sanctum Santorum.
