A sanctuary of spiritual bliss and architectural grandeur

Dotted along the serene banks of the Daman Ganga River, the Baps Shri Swaminarayan Temple serves as a captivating sanctuary of spiritual bliss and architectural grandeur. Dedicated to Bhagwan Swaminarayan, this splendid temple holds a special place in the hearts of the Gujaratis and mirrors the majestic "Swami Narayan Akshardham" in Gandhinagar.

Marvelling at the intricate aesthetics

The beauty of the Baps Shri Swaminarayan Temple lies in its meticulous design and brilliant construction. Remarkably, the temple's central mandir, carved from a special light pink marble rock, holds its ground without the use of structural steel or cement. The exquisite idols of Hindu deities, gracefully occupying their sacred space in the temple, add to its spiritual charm.

The temple's artistically decorated domes house grand carved flowers, the petals of which spread out in the form of chandeliers, contributing to the temple's ethereal beauty. This vibrant temple, surrounded by lush green lawns, offers a peaceful retreat amidst its beautiful artwork and splendid architecture.

Immersed in incredible stories

The inspiration behind the creation of this temple is Yogiji Maharaj, the fourth successor of Lord Swaminarayan. The temple's trust plays an integral role in giving back to the community by providing mobile medical units to remote villages, offering free Ayurvedic medicine, and conducting yoga classes and health education programmes. Additionally, they work tirelessly towards promoting education among the needy, establishing free schools and scholarship programmes for those keen on pursuing higher education.
