Meenakshi temple canteen…read more A great huge temple built as close to an authentic South Indian grand place of worship, as possible. The main deity, as the name suggests, is Devi Meenakshi. Avoid during special Indian days if you like to avoid crowds (like me), or, make sure to head to the temple on Indian festivals to be a witness to all the splendor of shiny clothes, funfare, prayers, activities and a carnival like busy but happy atmosphere. A must visit for any South Indian theist. Dressing modest is mandatory. Canteen. A good variety of simple yet tasty food. Everything goes towards temple proceedings after basic wages are paid. (A lot of ladies and gentlemen volunteer too.) There is limited dining area, but between indoor and outdoor, and the constant flow of devotees moving in and out, it gets managed pretty well. The food is prepared fresh which in itself is a crowd puller and we never come away without a box of lemon rice and curd rice as a to-go.

The Char Dham temple of Woodlands is a unique place dedicated to certain famous temples of India…read more It is built with the intention of replicating the real temples. Char means the number 4, so this place has 4 important Indian temple replicas in one place. Jagannath Temple (East): Dedicated to Lord Jagannath. Ramanathaswamy Temple (South): Dedicated to Lord Shiva. Dwarakadheesh Temple (West): Dedicated to Lord Krishna. Badrinath Temple (North): Dedicated to Lord Vishnu The actual Badrinath temple is located in a very difficult terrain. Due to its extreme conditions, it is open only 6 months in a year. Its not a journey anyone can undertake at short notice, requires extensive and proper planning, and, excellent health. So, this shrine is definitely unique and probably the only one outside of the country. The other 3 are important temples too, but not as hard to reach except that they are different corners of the country. the temple is open from 7:30 to 9:30AM, 6 to 9PM on all days except Fri and Sat. Fri and Sat timings: 9AM to 1PM, 5 to 9PM They have a canteen too which operates on weekends, but did not get a chance to try. An interesting place for the devout Hindus who can get the feel of the real temples so close to home in Houston. The temple has a huge garden and pathway laid out which makes it a pleasant place in more than one way. The pathways have directions which help go from one temple to the other in the order suggested. Not mandatory, just suggested. Operated by the SKAI foundation, it is not only a spiritual, but also a cultural center hosting besides daily worship - yoga classes, language lessons, and various Indian festivals Definitely worth a visit. And for some , repeated visits.

They did had prasadam when we visited but not sure if they keep everyday. Long list of pooja and offerings you can do. Even temple donation list was mentioned which goes max upto $15000. I wonder if they need so much money even for the renovation or new build but that how it is. Follow their rules strictly. They are very serious about that. I had mobile in selfie sticks in my hand which was closed but still they repeatedly keep telling me about no photography policy. Lady couldn't even understand that mobile is off and told me about all time surveillance. It was little rude for sure.

I connected with this temple a few years ago when I was going through health issues and offered the Navagraha Homa.
