About Akshardham Temple

Swaminarayan Akshardham is a Hindu temple complex in East Delhi that holds the Guinness World Record for the world's largest comprehensive Hindu temple. Built in 2005 by the BAPS organization, it features 234 ornately carved pillars, 9 domes, and over 20,000 statues — all crafted from Rajasthani pink sandstone and Italian Carrara marble without using any structural steel. The complex spans 100 acres and houses a 11-foot gold-leafed statue of Bhagwan Swaminarayan, a musical fountain, a 12-minute boat ride through Indian history, and a giant-screen film about the founder's teenage journey across India. Visiting takes 4-5 hours minimum to appreciate properly. Cameras and phones are not allowed inside — strict security throughout.
