Yelp I love coming to Durga Temple because of its calm atmosphere and the personal connection you get with the priests. They are more than willing to take time out to talk to you and answer all your questionThis place is truly humble and very family oriented. What sets this Temple apart from others is the atmosphere you get. Here no one is constantly asking for donations or judging you and they offer many services for FREE!Throughout the year there are many festival celebrations all which are FREE. They also offer Sunday school and SAT courses.s.They also have FREE prasad after aarthi & evening prasad (dinner). Usually different families volunteer to provide dinner and it's always delicious! I've been coming to this Temple daily for about 10 years now, I've watched the temple improve design wise and added amentities but the personal connection I've felt to it has stayed the same because many of the priests here are dedicated and truly care about the temple community.On special occasions make sure you arrive early or parking will be very tough, although they offer free shuttles from a near by parking lot on certain days.5 stars
Yelp If only this place was not so far away! I love coming here - it is calm and amazing. Gives me a happy feeling to come here! The priests and very accommodating and happy to talk and tell you stuff. Plenty of parking (but I haven't been here during major festivals yet) and quiet surroundings. It is a little hard to get to, given that it is soooo far away from I95, but hey, if I need that peace of mind, i dont mind driving out all the way!5 stars
Yelp It's an aesthetically pleasing structure that provides a nice and peaceful place for you to use the way you need/want... and they are pretty welcoming. The parking lot is spacious, if this is something you're looking for and you live in the general area, it'd be nice to stop by.5 stars
Yelp Now this is a religious place and place of worship is very personal to everyone. So here is my own personal review. I like to go to temples once in a while. I used to frequent Rajdhani Temple in Chantilly earlier but for some reason was unable to find peace of mind there. So I switched to Durga Temple 3 years ago and have been happier since then. I feel content praying here. The priests are are very approachable and take their time in explaining any religious question you may have. The temple is well managed and I do get a sense of being closer to God during my visits there.5 stars
