Very beautiful place both outside and inside. A well managed, clean and peaceful temple in Indiana.Our first visit to this temple was absolutely wonderful.

The only temple of Indianapolis on familiar road I used to travel to and from my business for 2o years. A splendid work of architect.

This is a very beautiful Temple. All of the statues are hand made, inside and outside of the temple. I have never seen so much beautiful pieces of work in my life. Every piece of each statutes inside, outside, on the walls, gods, roof, are hand made by individuals from India. I was told that it a group of individuals who traveled from India and lived in the basement of temple a few years to hand make each piece in the temple. Each piece was made to perfection. If you are ever invited to visit this temple, I can promise you will not be disappointed.

Best, sorry the only temple in indiana that is big enough form most of th deities..

Clean and well maintained temple. One of the best Hindu temple in Midwest

Tranquility at its best. Well maintained and a haven for Hindu enthusiasts. There are several activities that take place year long, celebrating all the festivities of the Hindu culture. It makes me feel connected and a sense of homeland is prevalent.

Before the creation of HTCI, most Hindus would go to Hindu Temple of Dayton or temples in Chicago for worship services.First Hindu Temple inaugurated in the state of Indiana in 2006 with a mission to serve the spiritual needs of Central Indiana’s Hindu families and representthe diversity of Hindu faith and culture.Beautiful building, worth seeing from outside and inside.We entered the building it was admittedly quite crowded that day. We began to tour the site and various shrines.This is such a great addition to Indianapolis that it would be a shame to miss it.Go for the art, youll be charmed by the priests who are anxious to explain various deities and festivals.This temple is attractive in many counts. A large and quiet campus with lawns and flower beds and facilities like parking lots, restrooms and a covered space for congregations including sit down ‘prasadam’ taking arrangement make the visitors comfortable.The idols are made of stones and the design of the temple is highly Indian.Maha kumbhabhishekam or consecration process was performed in 2015. It is built according to the Ancient Science of Indian Architecture called “Sthapatya Vidya”. The worship hall houses 17Sannidhis (shrines)-Sri Ganesha, Sri Ayyappa, Sri Hanuman, Sri Murugan, Sri Jagannath, Sri Durga, Sri Shiva, Sri Mahaveer, Sri Saibaba, Sri Saraswati, Sri Venkateswara, Sri Andal, Sri Lakshmi, Sri Parvati, Sri Rama, Sri Krishna and Navagrahas spread over 4 different gopurams, with the main tower being over 99 feet tall(30 metres).Weekly pujas are conducted throught out the week.Special pujas are conducted on New year, Pongal,Tamil New Year and Deepavali etc...HTCI Kitchen provides diversified menu to its devotees with carefully planned menu for the calendar week.Masala Dosa and Tamarind Rice is hailed for its best taste. They cook only Satwik food which is purely vegetarian (without onions and garlic). They try to accommodate as many combinations as possible and they are happy to serve you.Guided tours of the Hindu Temple of Central Indiana are available by appointment during the hours that the Temple is open (please note that the Temple is closed on weekday afternoons). Please email your tour request to temple at least 2 weeks or earlier in advance of your visit so that they arrange a volunteer to show you around.Duration of the tour will be for 1 hour.Most tours are given on weekday evenings and weekends.Topics covered are some essentials about how the spaces and symbols of the temple help the spiritual journey.The tour is free of cost.

Very beautiful, clean and well managed temple. People of all religions, gender and race are welcome. Its usually a quiet place but gets very crowded on certain festive days.Even one time visitors would appreciate the architecture and get some insight into Hindu culture.

Biggest Hindu temple that I saw in USA. It’s very tall. One of the tallest Siva Lingam you will ever see elsewhere. It’s an amazing experience to visit this temple. A must visit temple. This temple has all Gods and Goddesses.

I come to this temple from Louisville especially for Lord Shiva. That divine attracts you towards him.Jai Bholenath

Divine place. Spacious. Good atmosphere. Had great time.

Huge temple with detailed wood work. The ambience is soothing and engaging. Went there on temple fest the food was fresh, homemade and cheap. Must visit. Plenty of parking space.

Nice quiet beauty full temple

Holy place in Indiana. I was shocked when I was there for first time. You can have darshan to almost all gods. Very peaceful and must visit during festivals.

Decent place for meditation and pretty big temple as compared to other cities temples.

The Hindu temple is beautiful inside and out, the people inside were very welcoming and friendly, and the over all its just a pleasant place to visit. You can visit anytime its open to worship but if your not very familiar with the Hindu religion you can take a tours of the temple where a guide will explain different things to you to help with your understanding of their religious practices. I believe the tours are available on Saturdays and Sundays but you need to sign up for them on the provided website. I would highly suggest a visit if you would like to learn more about Hinduism and the culture around it!

I love the HTCI temple. You can find people of all faith and beliefs worshipping under one roof.lots of activities happening in the temple. You can go to the temple website to get details of daily activities and temple timings for each day. Very clean and beautiful temple.

I have been here for Diwali and Maha Shivratri in-spite of being crowded both the event were very well organized. Food was available on purchase like $5 for a small meal .staff was friendly and nice even the temple has been maintained nicely also the restrooms and shoe area.

Good feeling almost instantaneous when you enter the temple.. good Indian community too.. amazing place to relive your stress and other issues.. makes you feel renewed.

Serene, peaceful and spacious. Check the website before planning, as they have plenty of events that you can go to. You can also have Prasad (food - when I went they were serving curd rice, pulav, etc) at nominal price.You can offer puja too. Overall 5 star.

Big neat temple.. you have may gods there. The prasadam is good too.. :-)

Very peaceful religious place. The temple is well maintained and priests on duty was very nice and knowledgle able about the Hindu religious ceremonies. He took time to explain about Shiva abhishek. I am impressed. I am from Canada and hope to visit this place when ever I am visiting Indianapolis. I thank the temple committee for maintaining this place. A temple to be visited for peace of mind. Ashirwad and best wishes to all committee members, priests and volunteers.

Best Temple.. Must visit place

The place of God is always peaceful and beautiful.

Great temple. Very clean and there is ample parking. There events are very well organized. The Diwali prayer was amazing.

Purely Divine place to discover and enhance your spirituality. Place exudes lots of positive vibes. The Priests are highly knowledgeable and disciplined in performing the prayers and rituals according to ancient original sources to invoke divine blessings. I am highly amazed every time !

Awesome place to worship and celebrate Indian festivals. Pooja services are also provided. It is managed and run very professionally. They are welcoming to everyone regardless of your believes and background.

Peacefully environment and clean.

Fine temple, Fine People, Fine Priests, Fine Service and Fine Food. I enjoy coming here. Keep up the good work with community spirit and unity ! Please be strict with visitors to place footwear in shoe rack and not wearing shorts and torn jeans to temple. Parents should respect temple dress code if they want their children to respect their culture. Even if Saree, salwar and dhoti are not possible, they should at least be fully covered. People respect office dress code . Why not their place of worship dress code?

Really good temple for size of Indy. Very peaceful place. They also serve saatvik food.

This is a beautiful temple. It is spacious both inside and outside. There is a large Shivlinga as the main deity, with many altars for other Gods and Goddesses. I was there for a major event. The organizers and volunteers were amazing. I hope to return to this temple soon.

A very good Hindu temple in a Indiana. Great people staff and priest. Very peaceful place to go.

I love this place... nice place and environment is too good.. priests are very good. They celebrate all the hindu festivals..

Very big temple with good cafeteria facility. Nice place to visit for praying.

Loved it. Very peaceful and neat.

We are grateful to Anita for such a welcoming and informative tour of this beautiful temple!

A very beautiful temple. Clean and so well planned out. Excellent temple food and a great atmosphere.

Great experience here!Temple is quite well maintained and definitely peaceful!

Beautiful temple and great canteen food

It was awesome and huge temple, overall all I loved it

Awesome place to meditate. Good people around.

Ive been to a few temples in other states too but I really like the way this Temple has enough room for at the least 500 people inside the main temple. I like the way idols are placed inside the temple as opposed to horizontally placed idols in some temples in the Bay area and other regions.

I love the atmosphere. There is a sense of calmness.

So peaceful and happy to offer prayers at this temple.

Simply the best. We wish it was on NorthWest side.

Nice temple.. peaceful place

Divine place. Spacious. Good atmosphere. Had great time.

Very peaceful place for worship

Good place to meet people, to relax. Purohiths are friendly, they understant your requirement, for any poojas.

The temple is big, very quite and peaceful.You can worship many Hindu gods. Also worship Jain Thirthankaras.We can get lunch on Saturday and Sundays.It was little unclean outside temple. There were so many lemons in the parking area and little food too. All must try to keep it clean.

Great temple. Generous

Came here many times, they have bunch of events and poojas for big festivals like Diwali, Dusshera etc. need more people to participate and make the events successful

Great place to know more about Indian religion. Mostly Indian people visit here but not Indians also enjoy here!

Temples and surrounding areas are good. Attendants are quite helpful.

Great Indian temple! They are performing excellent poojas on all Indian special occasions. peaceful and clean.. cafeteria, parking, restrooms available

I had my wedding at HTCI, and it was a wonderful experience. I have nothing but great things to say about the temple and all those who made it the great day that it was. Even with our tight wedding timeline, they were so accommodating, and always willing to help us out. Ramesh ji was extremely helpful with any concerns/questions I had, and always willing to help, and I can’t thank him enough for always being patient and understanding. Badrinath Shasthri ji, the priest who officiated the wedding was amazingly helpful, and was available and willing to answer any questions I had, whenever I called him – and I called him a lot.Finally, the food was delicious, and the kitchen staff were extremely helpful and understanding. Even with a smaller order, there was more than enough to go around. Our guests had nothing but positive things to say about the food! We also appreciated the fact that HTCI staff offered to help with cleanup up at the end of the wedding ceremony, even though we were in charge of clean up. Overall, thanks to the extremely helpful and organized staff, my wife and I were able to have a joyful and relaxing wedding experience. We would like to thank HTCI for everything they were able to do for us.

Pleasant atmosphere, felt like home ...

Amazing

Nice Siva Vishnu temple/kovil

Great place to visit. Really good.

Great place to calm down

Best place to be at for peace. The whole temple has such positive aura. Everyone in the temple and committed are so involved in the maintenance and activities. Very well maintained place. Irrespective of region, all Hindu festivals and events are celebrated here. I do not find dominance of a single region or culture here with India being such diverse country after all.

Great place of worship, friendly Temple members. The architecture of the temple is amazing!

Recently built with good architecture to accommodate many people. Had over 15 temples inside. There is nice souvenir shop and canteen. Purple can donate in cash or for offerings like pooja or food.

Really beautiful..

After the expansion of the original building, now the real, authentic India vibe can be felt here. Much of the intricate art and sculpture were done by shilpis of India. A great place to join in worship, sit for meditation, engage in cultural activities, or host an event in their first class facilities.

Its really peaceful.b

Feel like youre in heaven

Calm and composed environment. Great for worshipping and gathering. Parking facility is good and quite enough.

Beautiful building and well maintained parking lot with a pokestop for Pokemon go.

Great place great temple

Beautiful temple and nice people.

Welcoming, quiet, tranquil

Very nice place. I like to much. God Bless Everyone. Who come to them. Preying God Everybody Get peace of mind Helth & wealth. Jay Shri Ram Bapasitaram’s

Was stunned with inside architecture of the temple. Each avatar of God was fantastically sculptured and portrayed, that add beauty to the temple. Go inside the temple and spend some time in taking a closer look at idols and sculptures. You will feel like you visited a temple in India.Definitely a must visit Hindu temple.

I’ve been going there every weekend and most Hindu festivals since last 3 yrs. A peaceful place full of positive divine energy. :)

Very nice hindu temple..very neat and clean..divine place

Fantastic atmosphere ️️

Best devotional place

Very peaceful and beautiful place for worshipping.

One of the beautiful temples I have seen in U.S. Really nice location with lots of greenery out the temple. The way they portrayed the gods was a jaw dropping experience. Huge space inside for bajans, little functions, and play area outside. It was nicely built!

Awesome place. Peace in environment.
