Sri Guruvaayoorappan Temple is a classic South Indian temple with great architecture, stunning…read moreidols of deities with grandiose decoration together with the calm and peaceful vibe inside the temple. The temple is huge, well maintained and all the Covid precautions are in place. There's ample of parking space outside. Once you enter the temple from the side door, there will be a temperature check and after that, you go upstairs where you'd see all the idols. The one clever thing that the people working here have done is that they have installed one entry and exit point so that there's only one way from start to finish to see all the idols, get blessings, pray and worship once inside. They have arranged this fence type barrier and you follow along throughout, seeing all the magnificent idols at display. Apart from the beautiful idols, they also do various pooja/ archana for a reasonable price. You can get the details before entering the main floor. There's also a canteen located at walking distance from the temple with plenty of food items on the menu. The canteen is run by volunteers (as far as I could tell) and the menu is your typical South Indian styled food items like Dosa, vada, idli and a few more along with beverages like tea and coffee. We had a few different varieties of dosas, Idli & Vada combo, coffee and kesari. The food on offering was just ok with mild toned down flavors. The temple has a calming vibe, it's peaceful and a place for devotees to gather and be one with the divine. A must visit temple if you're around.

Let's don't forget, recently I visited the US largest Hindu temple, located in Robbinsville, NJ. Reason why you can call me: Public Figure PeTeR HuDeC, all churches, all temples, and other religious pilgrimage places lover. Amen!

Breathtaking for sure…read more Being here felt almost the same as being inside the Sagrada in Spain and/or the Notre Dame in Paris. Same vibe, different deity. Our reservation was on a rainy Sunday. We got there before they were even open. There was already a line of cars that clearly stressed out the staff overseeing the entrance. At one point, one guy started running and told everyone they needed to turn right around and were then told to drive to the other side. A few cars were let in. We assumed they were staff. We were directed towards the huge parking lot which seemed more like the actual entrance. The first thing we saw was the massive statue. We did take some time to enjoy the flowers outside and the rest of things to be seen before going inside. Realistically, you really only need a couple hours. As soon as we entered the main building, numerous volunteers were available if you needed help, directions or whatever else. Our group of 4 started out together then we separated and did our own thing. I mostly followed the signs telling you where you should walk towards. My favorite thing was standing in the middle of a mandala on the floor then I would stare up and marble at the artistry. Every corner looked the same yet different. I took the time to read the description on the displays. Some folks were more fascinating than others, imho. We made sure to watch the short documentary playing in one of the theaters then grabbed a bite at the small cafe serving coffee, chain and some small bites. They also have a school style cafeteria where you can have hot foods. We didn't partake as we had lunch plans. We did however make sure to visit their gift shop where I ended up buying an unnecessary amount of incense. Shockingly, their pricing was very low. I'm from SoCal and typically get my incense from crystal shops or Venice Beach and the selection here was cheaper and smelled far better. The women in the shop were so nice and friendly. A must visit if you're in the area. I'm going to be visiting the one in SoCal when I get back home.

I had been waiting to visit this temple the day it was open. I don't drive & going to NJ from…read moreStaten Island without a car is a pain so finally one of my closest friend who had a school project & he requested that i join him & give him some ideas for the project. Respectfully I chose my own cultural clothing to show respect while I am there . And everyone loved & appreciated that where ever I was going . All the volunteers are absolutely amazing besides one. I almost cried & thought of leaving immediately. But some older gentleman reminded me not to ruin my peace & happy journey here for just one person. She was so racist, mean, have no idea how to treat people. I was probably one of the first hijaby she met on a Hindu temple and her heart couldn't take it ! I grow up with a father who was very close to culture, different religions never bothered him while making friends. Most of his friends are Hindu actually & we grow up like one family. So going to a temple & showing respect isn't new to me. I was gonna make a written complaint but I have decided to let it go & be a better person! If you are residing in New Jersey then you should not miss this temple. One of my all time favorite 'Awe' moments! There is a section where you are not allowed to take any pictures, that's the area I feel like not leaving ! A must see . If you wanna do a photoshoot try to make an appointment in advance, so they don't give you any problems. I don't think you have to pay anything for that , I am not sure though. But most of the areas you can definitely take pictures as much as you want with your phone . They have a big cafeteria, and the food is good . They also have a gift shop and as a South Asian I was shocked how cheap the items are considering outside in any other places. I ended up buying a lot of stuff , very good idea to get stuff for gifts . I am dreaming to come back again with some comfortable shoes lol !
