    First time visited this Temple. Great location, anyone outside of BC can find it easily. There is a Hindu temple next to it. You can visit two temples in one time. Hare Krishna temple lot is big. Shree Gourango Mohaprovu always dancing at the back yard, standing tall! Such a beautiful Gourango Mohaprovu! Inside the temple is very nicely decorated with God and Goddess. Radhe Krishna and all other deities are gorgeously dressed up and decorated. Very peaceful devotional place. We had Moha Prosadam after evening Aarti and kirton. Hundreds of devotees attended during Kirton and Hari Nam. Big parking lot including accessible parking. Recommended others to visit this holy place.

    Really Peaceful temple & polite temple worker. Today first time visited to this location. It is situated in very nice and quiet area. Interior is beautiful specially wooden work give traditional feel. There is seating arrangements for prayer on floor or chair. They are following all COVID precautions during this time. Must check hours before heading. Entrance has shoes booth where we can remove our shoes before getting into main premises. They offered prashad(food) to everyone at the time of we were leaving. Hare Ram Hare Ram..Ram...Ram Hare Hare... Hare Krishna Hare Krishna... Krishna..krishna..Hare Hare..🙏

    It is located beside of Hindu temple in Burnaby. ✅ Nice Krishna temple to visit at least once. ✅ We were visited noon time where temple is closed for Darshan. Visitors should take care of Darshan timings. ☹️ Govinda dining hall is kind of restaurant in temple where you can buy & eat food at their dining area. Statue is really nice & tall to click picture outside of temple. ✅ Hare Rama Hare Krishna 🙏

    The ISKCON Temple in Vancouver is a great peaceful place for those interested in Hindu spirituality and the teachings of the Lord Krishna. The temple offers a serene and spiritual environment, with regular devotional services and kirtan (chanting). I appreciate the vegetarian cuisine served at the temple's restaurant. The temple is also involved in various outreach and charitable activities in the Vancouver area.

    It so happened that we visited this temple on Lord Krishna's Janmastami (birthday). The temple was very crowded and yet things were all in order. We had great darshan. They served food for free as well.

    Absolutely divine mandir... if you are looking to get closer to God and find a community of spiritually minded people who are welcoming and friendly then this is the place. Come for a Sunday program and enjoy ecstatic dancing, chanting and delicious prasad

    I had the most wonderful experience visiting the Hindu temple! From the moment I stepped inside, I was greeted by an aura of serenity and positive energy that instantly put me at ease. The intricate architecture and vibrant colors of the temple's exterior were truly captivating and set the tone for the spiritual journey within. The interior of the temple is a masterpiece of design and devotion. The attention to detail in every sculpture and carving is awe-inspiring. I could feel the deep reverence that has gone into creating this sacred space. The peaceful atmosphere and the scent of incense added to the overall sense of tranquility. What struck me the most was the palpable positive vibe that permeated every corner of the temple. Whether it was the rhythmic chants of the priests or the sense of unity among the worshippers, I felt a profound connection to something greater than myself. It's evident that this temple holds a special place in the hearts of many. The staff were warm, welcoming, and ready to answer any questions I had about the temple's history and practices. Their enthusiasm added to the enriching experience, making it not only a sightseeing visit but also a chance to learn and grow. If you're looking for a place to find solace, connect with spirituality, and bask in the beauty of culture and tradition, this Hindu temple is an absolute must-visit. The positive vibes and stunning architecture make it a gem that truly deserves every bit of praise.

    Peaceful and rejuvenating place for your soul... it is a great place to fulfil your inner quest for knowing who we are and what our purpose of life is. The temple is only open for personal prayers and that too from 4:30 am to 12:30 pm only due to COVID.

    I was there for Janmashtami celebrations. I was surprised by the crowd there. Huge line ups. It took more than two hours for darshan. For a moment, I felt that I am in India. But organizers have managed the crowd well. It was a great experience.

    Hare Krishna. It can't be less than 5 star. True place to rejuvenate your soul and body after a long week of work. Usually, I visit temple on festival time. I would recommend to visit whenever possible and feels low. A way better feeling than a bar!!

    It’s a very welcoming Hindu temple. Went with friends as we’re all yoga teachers to practice Bhakti Yoga, the devotional practice. The Sunday Feast is supported by community donations. There was kirtan, chanting, celebration of community members, and a big feast together served by the members. Really welcoming and heartfelt experience.

    Every day when a Bhagvan festival arrives I visit the lovely temple and I love the details that are going on through the dramas. The cake is too sweet and the people who are dressed up as God make amazing characters for the dramas. If you have never been here and do not live here in BC this place is a must-visit and you are welcome to come here. Also the chants are very, very well sung. Jaya jaya prabhupad Hare Krsna......🙏🙏🙏🥹

  • 5/5 Tushar U. 2 years ago on Google
    Truly mesmerizing experience. If you are looking for calm, peace and a serene experience just go here. You can sit, pray and offer your prayers to god. It is located just besides the iskon temple. You can visit both if you have time. Last time I went here they had sundarkand reading scheduled on just the other day of Janmashtami. Nice place to find your inner peace. ✌️

    there should be more than 5 stars, this management and iskcon family is very nice and humble, they give you so much love that you don't feel like you are there first time or a newcomer. Real example of Krishna consciousness, they do see god in every living entity. Very lucky all the devotees who can go there and be in association with these devotees. Hare Krishna.

    Temple which is boosted with energy. Go to this temple to rejuvenate, meditate, worship lord Krishna. Very positive environment all around. Staff is very helpful, clean and knowledgeable. It's a place where you can devote yourself to god. Forgot to mention, prasadam is out of the world thing.

  • 4/5 Manish P. 2 years ago on Google
    This is the temple of lord Krishna, which has been built and now maintained by Iskcon society. A divine place for Hindus, but all are welcome. They serve Hindu vegetarian meals as Prasad free for everyone on the occasion of Hindu festivals. They also have an attached cafeteria, “Govindam” which serve vegetarian food. The temple has limited parking and can be difficult to find one on the occasion of festivals. It is also well served by transit, with buses from multiple routes passing through it from Edmonds and Royal Oak skytrain stations.

  • 4/5 Asmita C. 2 years ago on Google
    We visited Iskcon at Burnaby today during the evening arati , kirtan and the special feast on Sunday. The ambience is beautiful. It is close to the Royal Oak skytrain station. They are following Covid protocols. There were many devotees today. The prasadam (delicious vegetarian food) was very delicious.

  • 5/5 Arvindh Prashanth R. 2 years ago on Google
    Quiet settings. The Darshan is spread at intervals over the course of a day. Double check the Darshan times before heading out there.

👍👍 Great place for all ages. There are multiple amenities in this park. Tenis and basketball courts. Table tenis and a nice playground for the young ones. During summers, it gets busy due to the water playground area. Nice for a weekend barbecue or after office walk.

👍👍 As I did not enter the mosque, I have no idea about its interior, but its location is right next to the bus stop, which makes it very convenient and accessible. This mosque in Canada brought back memories of my father and how he would attend our local mosque five times a day, which was nice.
