Akshardham Temple is a prominent Hindu temple, and a spiritual-cultural complex, an epitome of Indian culture, spirituality, and architecture. This is also known as Akshardham Swaminarayan, after Lord Swaminarayan. Being the most detailed Hindu Temple in the world, Akshardham made his way to the Guinness Book of World Records.
Akshardham Temple is known for its sumptuous architecture. This has sculpted eight ostentatious mandapams while timeless Hindu scriptures and flamboyant devotional rituals find their place on the temple walls. The centrepiece, that is, Lord Swaminarayan's Murti, along with one of the twenty thousand deities, reveals the essence of Indian architecture, rituals, and eternal spiritual thoughts through prominent figures in Indian history and wise men.
Akshardham complex is home to India's largest step well which is a host to the mesmerising water show; an open garden, Narayan Sarovar, various expeditions, and rituals. The complex is not less than a paradise for spiritual seekers.
