West India Temples » Akshardham Temple Gandhinagar
 
 
 
Akshardham Gandhinagar is one of the largest temples in the Indian state of Gujarat. The temple complex combines devotions, art, architecture, education, exhibitions and research at one place. The temple came to international attention when two heavily armed terrorists attacked it in September 2002, one year after the '9/11' attack.

Akshardham Gandhinagar is a predecessor to the Akshardham at Delhi, built by the same religious organisation, Bochasanwasi Akshar-Purushottam Swaminarayan Sanstha (BAPS) led by Pramukh Swami Maharaj. It was inaugurated by him on Monday, November 2, 1992 CE, during the centenary celebrations of Yogiji Maharaj. The complex is very popular among tourists visiting Gujarat.


Akshardham is a place of education, entertainment and enlightenment.
As one of the wonders of world, it combines traditional stone architecture,

Ancient wisdom, and the best of modern technology to create the most powerful experience of Indian Culture ever to exist.
Dedicated to Lord Swaminarayan, and inspired by HDH Pramukh Swami Maharaj, Akshardham is a miracle worked by the sacrifice of thousands of volunteers. Hundreds of figures, dioramas, displays and audio-visual shows, unfold a stream of timeless experiences. They are visually mesmeric, scientifically stunning, and spiritually moving. More than 2 million visitors visit annually.
