Introduction

The ISKCON Temple in Delhi, dedicated to Krishna and Radha, is one of the largest and most visited Krishna temples in North India, known for its striking modern architecture and vibrant devotional atmosphere. Set on a hillock, the temple complex includes multiple shrine halls, a large auditorium and a museum illustrating stories from the Bhagavad Gita through dioramas and light shows.

Regular kirtan sessions and a free prasadam meal for visitors reflect the temple's welcoming approach to anyone interested in observing or participating in Krishna devotional practice, and its position near the Kalkaji area places it within easy reach of the equally striking Lotus Temple for those covering both on the same day.

History

Part of the global International Society for Krishna Consciousness movement, Delhi's ISKCON temple was built to serve the city's substantial Krishna devotee community while also welcoming a broad general public audience curious about Vaishnavite Hindu practice.
