The temple is average, not as spread out as the Delhi one. However, a good visit. remember, bags and mobile phones cannot be taken in (biggest problem). However, all safe arrangements are made outside to keep them. The Water Show is a must see. It is under priced. Gets a little draggy in the middle. But, a must see in... More

It was the first time I visited an Akshardham temple and it is really well maintained place and they have done it up beautifully. It is a place to visit if one is going to look at architecture and aesthetics of the place, there is not much of spirituality to the place and it doesn't seem to promote the same... More

There are three Akshardham temples in the world that Swaminarayan Akshardham Temple of New Delhi, India is one of them. Swaminarayan Akshardham Temple was one of the best experience of India, especially it's fountain and show.

After seeing opening ceremony of china Olympic I saw some thing massage giving theme water show with live character also. If any body visiting Ahmadabad must visit Akshardham and also must attend water show and traditional restaurant called Premwati.

This is one of the prettiest settings I have seen for a temple. The temple itself is stunning. Note that you cannot take ANY personal belongings other than money (no drinks, bags, cameras, phones etc) so you may wish to leave somewhere safe, though you can leave them at the entrance. Big shame you cannot capture the outside of the... More

Akshardham is a beautiful temple in Gandhinagar, Gujarat. It will take you around 2-3 hours to go through the entire temple and view all the shows. You can directly goto the temple if you are only interested in main temple.
