Most travel plans are a total deluge on the sense of sight. What about one that is accompanied by an EXPERIENCE? Well you can rank Akshardham next to the likes of Taj MahaI or the other six Wonders of the World - it is only a matter of time before it gains official recognition as the Eighth Wonder of the... more

I really loved visiting this place and did not know what to expect when I rocked up. The temple was fantastic and the exhibitions really did take you into a new world and taught you new things in plain English about the country you are in. The staff there are absolutely fantasic. I am an Aussie and they were accomodating... more

It was too good... I would say the temple is beautiful, the shows and boat ride is something 'out of the world' but the discipline there is something which you will rarely find anywhere in India.... The shows send you to a new world altogether.. U just forget where r u and the musical fountain well I can't describe..I have... more

This temple seems to have been built purely with tourism in mind, but it is still a good place to spend a couple of hours. Despite not yet being on the tourist guide books, the place was still verrry busy, with locals. Lots of bits to see, especially if you want to pay the extra for all the boat rides,... more

Last month, I had to go to Delhi for a competitive examination. After my exam, I also visited Akshardham temple. It is situated very close to the India gate on the banks of Yamuna. Photography is not allowed in the site. I think for someone visiting Delhi this is a must visit. There are not many temple existing of this... more

The Swaminarayan Akshardham has been in the news and we went to visit it as the sort of newest Temple on the block. The "temple", if you can call it that, is more of an amusement park of the most kitschy kind. If you have any genuine interest in temple arcitecture or any sense of aesthetics, you will be apalled... more

Swaminarayan Akshardham – Delhi’s hidden gem I recently travelled to India with my wife and came across an attraction that can only be described as a “Hidden Gem”. Travelling from my home town of Rotterdam, where the tourist attractions are typical of Europe, I was seeking something a little more exotic and stumbled across an unbelievable treasure. For peace, culture... more

I recently went to visit the Akshardham Mandir in New Delhi. Luckily for me, I'd previously heard some rave reviews about Akshardham, although no guide books had been updated with this fantastic monument/temple. Inside, there is an indoor boat ride describing India's achievements over the years, a garden dedicated to those who have made outstanding contributions to Indian history, an... more
