Hindu Temple of Atlanta

Google I have been in 55 nations and this is probably the most beautiful interior I've ever seen. The interior and exterior are simply staggering in their demonstration of artisan work. The place consists of 34000 blocks of stone cut and carved in India and reassembled here. Alas, there are photo Gestapos who will make sure you take no pictures on the inside and Incredibly no pictures on the outside unless you're at a distance near the parking lots or fountains. You cannot even take pictures from the top of the stairs on the outside. We did not find it real welcoming in that sense. One of the staff members admitted to being paranoid about what might get done with pictures of this place. I hate policy that is created out of fear rather than hospitality. Everyone there as a visitor seems very respectful and circumspect. I am really happy that I had a very good 2000 mm lens with me and was able to capture very nicely the exterior Sensibility. The interior is simply Beyond imagination.5 stars

Google It is really great place. Nice to see Indian culture and traditions across the India. I love to visit this place more often! Ambiance is really good. Visiting with family always feels so calm and soothe. I recommend to visit this place once and relax at the temple!5 stars

Google What can I write about this wonderful place. Located on the top of the hill like Tirumala and Pittsburgh Temple this place has both Balaji and Shiva temples. Nandi is just beautiful. Priests are very knowledgeable. Great place to spend time.5 stars

Yelp This is one of the oldest Temples in USA. Very beautiful temple. Nice and divine atmosphere. Well maintained. Must see places in Atlanta, GA. Balaji and Shiva temple of Atlanta. Shiv and Balaji (Vishnu) temple located side by side in the same premises. The temple architecture is similar to the Indian architecture. They offer to perform all pooja's and offer services for gruhapravesha's and satyanarayan swamy pooja at home. The Staff, Pujaris and the reverberating chantings spread the sanctuous and pious feelings for everyone. Food court offers authentic Indian food. They have ample free parking.5 stars

Yelp Amazing and Beautiful Temple. I cannot say more. God knows...God should write i guess:))))) This was the first temple I landed in United States it was during May 16 1996....They took me on the same time to Kumbhabhishekam and doing volunteer work- amazing I was there during the Kumbabhishekam and again during 2001 Brahamotsavam where i took Swami Nithyananda Giri every day -it was so great Now on April 25th was on the way to Orlando, florida from Ohio (piqua, ohio) and i did go to temple on April 26 2015 -and had a great darshan. How amazing has grown. I had a great lunch also i purchased for it. The temple has grown so much -it is amazing and so beautiful. Now they have for Lord Vishnu separate and Lord Shiva separate. I cannot say more words... It has grown so huge and big. People love it. I do have pictures posted in FB.5 stars

Yelp I was traveling through and decided to stop by. Beautiful place, extremely friendly staff. Amazing to see so much culture here. Thank you!5 stars

Yelp The "not recommended" review is quite complimentary about the yoga offered at the temple. I don't know what Yelp! Was thinking when it said this review wasn't "recommended." Did an algorithm not fit the review?5 stars

Yelp This is the temple T and I frequent. It's beautiful, peaceful, and the staff there are very welcoming. One of our favorite things about this temple? The temple kitchen. You will not be disappointed.5 stars
