We were all very excited because it was our first time going to a temple. The name of the temple is Akshardham Temple and it is the largest Hindu temple in the world. It is quite important as it exhibits thousands of years of Hindu culture.
We paid 170 rupees per person for the entrance. When we entered the area, a magnificent structure greeted us and it was the temple itself. The temple was huge and surrounded by walls. I think the outside of the temple was just as impressive as the inside. His garden had pools, lawns, and a gorgeously patterned path to the temple. As soon as we entered the garden and the patterned road, we started taking pictures. There were many tourists like us around. It was time to enter the temple. The inside of the temple was really beautiful, but I can't show you because photography is forbidden. There were so many statues inside the temple that I heard there were about 20,000. When we visited the other sides, we saw that there were 3 big halls in the temple. In the first of the halls were dioramas depicting the devotion of Hindus to their gods. (If you say what a diorama is, they are small models made to describe events and people.) In the second hall, we watched a 40-minute film about the life of Sweminayon, one of the most important names in India. I liked the movie, although some find it boring. In the last hall, we watched another 12-minute film about India's 10,000 years of glorious history. I think both movies were good. It made us know the culture of India.
If you want to come, the temple is open from 10:00 to 17:30 every day except Mondays.
