Amazing Sikh Gudwara we came to for a wedding ceremony. It's located in a remote part of Riverside…read morewith farmlands and nurseries along the route, making for a scenic drive that starts transporting you away from the sleepy suburbs during your journey. The experience was amazing, starting with appetizers in the large food hall where free vegetarian food is provided and served by volunteers. On the ceremony day we had catered food and there was plenty of room in the large hall for all the guests. The gudwara is spacious and well maintained, very welcoming to all visitors no matter what your beliefs are. For non-Sikh guests, you have to cover your hair. There are free bandanas you can borrow right at the entrance. The wedding ceremony is about 2 hours and you will be seated on the floor most of the time until you stand a couple times at the end. The floor is padded making it more comfortable and there are songs most of the ceremony.

Helpful Tips for First-Time Visitors…read more Admission/parking are completely free; you only pay for the cafe. Here is what we learned, especially if visiting for architecture. Arrival, Check-In, & Dress CodeGroup Check-In: One person acts as leader, checks the party in at the visitor center, and gets a tracking wristband. Staff: Our group wore summer dresses and shorts. The staff was incredibly welcoming, respectful, and comforting. Sarongs: Knees/shoulders must be covered; no tank tops. Free, one-size sarongs are available at a table to the LEFT of check-in (near the Men's restroom). Drop them in the return basket when done.The Footwear TrickShoes must be removed before climbing the entrance stairs. The stone steps get intensely hot under the sun (reaching ~120°F even on 90°F days). My bare feet were in so much pain that my smartwatch HR spiked instantly!The Fix: Bring thick socks before entering. Walk directly on the white marble stripes by the handrails--white marble reflects heat and stays much cooler. Experience: It was eye-watering hot before I realized the temperature difference midway up. I was stepping on my daughter's sarong to save my feet while yelling at her not to trip! Learn from me and use the white tracks from step one. Hidden Architectural TreasuresThe interior marble carvings (Italian shrine stone, Indian floors) are breathtaking. Each tier tells a story: Floor Level: Peacocks, fish, and turtles are at eye level on column bases. Water creatures represent the foundation of the world, anchoring the temple, while peacocks show nature's beauty. High Corners: Look way up where pillars meet ceiling arches for the alligator-like 'Makara' (mythical guardian). Its open mouth reminds visitors to leave behind their sharp worldly egos. Hidden Pedestal: Near Ganesha's feet is a tiny carving of a rat. Representing human restlessness, the still rat symbolizes conquering busy thoughts to find peace. Ceiling Domes: A massive lotus blooms downward from the center (spiritual enlightenment), supported by a tier of carved artisans honoring selfless service. Cafe & Snack ShopKeep these flavor profiles in mind at the vegetarian cafe: Spiced White Yogurt: Skip it entirely. It does not taste like chai; it tasted like spiced ethanol and almost made me sick. Other Drinks: The mango and green yogurt drinks are much better. Savory Food: Cheese pizza is available. The Pea/Potato Empanadas (Kachoris) are tasty but extremely spicy Samosas are mild and taste great with both red and green sauces. Sweets: They don't have Baklava. The staff recommended a nutty chocolate fudge sweet that tasted like dry Cocoa Puffs--decent, but not sweet or chewy. General AdviceTiming: Visit early morning or near sunset to avoid the blistering midday sun on the stairs. Accessibility: If the stairs look too intimidating, ask the staff for directions to the indoor elevator.

The head priest greeted me and is very friendly and told me what to do: After removing my shoes and socks, washed my hands and placed a head scarf (available if you did not bring one), you proceed to the main area to pray. No cell phones at that point so I didn't take any pictures. I sat down on the soft carpet and prayed. The Sikh temple is open to everyone, which I love religions who accept anyone so I will pray to whoever will listen to my prayers. Felt really good especially during these trying times. Then he told me to come eat. I was actually surprised because I thought meals were only served on Sundays, which he told me is their liveliest day so come from 11-2. There was Basmati rice, naan bread and a curry of potatoes, onions and peas. I then sat on the floor mat and thoroughly enjoyed my surprise meal peacefully. Chai tea and water is also available and I was able to get seconds too. Always good practice to provide a donation of any kind to pay it forward and for good karma. There is a little donation box near the food and a huge calendar for people to sign up for meal prep. Highly recommend visiting anytime! I parked on the neighboring streets nearby.
