It's a beautiful place near Kolkata to visit for 2/3 hrs. Most preferably at evening time. The beauty is more when the lights are turned on with black sky background. It has a cafeteria as well. Car parking is available and the officials are managing that quite well. Very clean which is very much needed for any devotional place.

Beautiful and serene. They have a space behind the temple that people can book to get married at. Serving food happens in the canteen where they make very tasty vegetarian food. Taking photos inside the temple is not allowed but a photographer is allowed in the wedding area. The place is located in joka and slightly away from the very loud city hustle.

Most peaceful and calming experience. 😌😇 Marvelous architectural works worth being lost into.❤️😌 Suggested to visit during dusk to enjoy the flawless beauty of the setting sun. 😀😀 Ease of transport, no entry fees and a feast for eyes and mind. 😇😇

Peaceful, quite, serene and extremely clean and well maintained temple spread over a large area decorated with fountains and curated gardens. The darshan procedure is very systematic and clean. There is a store selling various products of the ashram and a large canteen. One can also spend a very peaceful time meditating on the marble benches. Parking of car is also available.

Nestled on Diamond Harbour Road near Bhasa, on the outskirts of Kolkata, this temple is a hidden gem that truly captures the essence of tranquility and spirituality. As a visitor, I was mesmerized by the temple's exquisite architecture, which showcased a harmonious blend of traditional and contemporary styles. The temple provides a serene and peaceful atmosphere, away from the bustling city life. The moment you step onto the premises, you are greeted by a sense of calmness that envelops your entire being. The meticulously maintained gardens and well-kept surroundings add to the overall charm and allure of the place. I found solace in the tranquility that pervades every corner of this spiritual haven. The temple offers a much-needed respite from the chaos of daily life, allowing visitors to immerse themselves in deep reflection and introspection. The serene ambiance creates the perfect setting for meditation, offering a space to connect with one's inner self.

This temple, which is tucked away on Diamond Harbour Road in Bhasa on the outskirts of Kolkata, is a hidden gem that perfectly encapsulates serenity and devotion. The temple's magnificent architecture, which displayed a seamless fusion of conventional and modern forms, mesmerised me as a tourist. Away from the busy daily life, the temple offers a calm and tranquil environment. You feel a sense of calmness permeate your entire being the instant you enter the grounds. The perfectly managed grounds and attractive surroundings add to the location's overall appeal. The peace that permeates every inch of this spiritual retreat brought me comfort.

Beautiful architecture, grandeur in the middle of nowhere. Built of red sandstone the interiors are breathtaking as well. The compound is very spacious,.clean and very well maintained.The restrooms are clean and parking lot is available. Word of caution, if you are planning to visit in the evening hrs(4 to 7 pm), better hire a cab else leave early as the app cabs are a tad difficult to find due to the remoteness.

Visited this place back in 2018. Beautiful, serene, full of calmness. A good one day trip from kolkata for religious beliefs.. Great architecture, you will surely feel peaceful by the beauty and serenity. Even canteens were available back then, clean washroom facility, parking facility available.

Beautiful place. Calm and serene. Good for early morning and evening visits. You can do photography on the outside but no phones or cameras allowed once you go up and that perfectly fine.

Excellent place to visit in weekend with family. There is no entry fees. Canteen and parking facilities are available. You can park your teo wheeler at rs 20 only(there is no time limit). Temple opening time 7.30 am to 12pm then 4pm to 8pm. Sandhya arati time is 6.45pm. Photography is not allowed inside of the temple. It is situated in diamond harbour road near joka metro. Ambience and temple work is mind blowing. Must recommended place

Very good place to visit on a weekend. Very well decorated and it consists of a good space as well. Good place for taking some photos. It has a small shop within the premises and also one restaurant type. But no AC facility is available. You can get dhokla, South Indian, few sweets, noodles, etc as snacks in the restaurant. Parking is available.

The Shri Swaminarayan Mandir in Kolkata is a stunning example of Hindu architecture and artistry. From the moment you approach the mandir, you are struck by its grandeur and beauty.

Overall, the Shri Swaminarayan Mandir in Kolkata is a must-visit destination for anyone interested in Hindu culture, architecture, or spirituality.

I loved this temple a lot. The artistry is so perfect, the whole ambience of the place is calm, soothing and the guards are generous and kind. This temple is top notch clean n tidy which is the main thing I loved about this place. Picturesque is the perfect adjective that fits here. There’s parking space so its easy to commute with your own vehicle. It has canteen which serves pure veg, healthy food.

The peaceful atmosphere resembles the heaven.. A must visit place with family or with your beloved one.. The designs engrave on the temple r immensely beautiful, just mind blowing.. There is parking slot available for bikes & cars & also vegetarian restaurant you can find there. The photography inside the temple is not allowed, you can click photos outside the temple & can save the beauty of the ambience in your phone gallary..

just one word amazing.. very few places are where you can go for peace of mind.. this temple one of those.. very calm, peace, beautiful architecture, huge area, huge parking lot, big canteen. you can visit here for whole day with your family, friends etc. best place for elder people..

Great architecture, well planned and very well managed temple. Please plan accordingly to the temple opening hours, since the main gate would be closed and there is no waiting area nearby if you visit during off hours. A restaurant is present inside the temple area, price is a bit high i would say, but food taste is good and serving is quick. Parking place is available for both bikes/cars with enough spaces.

Very good place to visit with family specially elderly people. The area is huge and there is total piece of mind. you can sit anywhere and relax. There is a huge canteen with a provision of over 500 people to sit and take meal. You can get number of veg dishes, tea, coffee, samosa, dosa, cold drink and many more. Overall a good place for worship and relaxation from hectic city life. As this is located away from city, one has to plan entire day to visit this place and not to be in hurry as you need 2-3 hours to enjoy it and the surroundings.

This is what it is to be happy.Temples are an expression of God's love.The temple is a place of holiness.it should be treated with the greatest degree of reverence and respect.

Very nice and peaceful environment. Offering puja is very simple and quick. The architecture is very soothing. Well maintained, have large parking facility inside. Also a big vegetarian resturent available there. Good place to spend some time out of crowded city. Clean and well maintained washroom is also there.

Very beautiful peaceful place. Far from city crowd. Weekend destination for 1 day. Ample car parking facility canteen,washroom. Differently able persons friendly.

Wonderful place with excellent art in the entire area and the temple. Your soul will be calm and cool after visiting the place. Huge parking lot and sufficient place to roaming around. Food also available there.

It is a good place for day outing in Kolkata. The entire temple is beautifully decorated. In the evening when the lights turned on, it looks spectacular. But there is a lots of steps to visit the temple which is problematic for old persons or those who have orthopaedic problems.

Very beautiful place. It's a Hindu temple. Highly recommended place. please visit there.. you will feel more better with inner peace. Can't believe that it's in Kolkata. Inside restaurant available with very minimum charges of food ..

Beautiful place and so calm and serene. Going there, I felt like all my problems eased out They are very specific on timings. So 12-4 is a No Go time. The temple remains closed.

Nice place to visit with family. Entire compound is well protected , wide and pollution free. Ample space for parking. If you are not getting a chance to visit Akshardham temple in Gujrat then you must visit this place . You will have exactly the same essence visiting here .It is worth visiting this place.

The place is on the outskirts of the city. The temple is marvellous grand beautiful!!! Lawns are there to sit and spend time in the temple area. Parking space is there. Wheelchair ls cant go till the top of the temple where swami narayana sits graciously. Photography and videography is prohibited. The campus is having toilets and a big vegetarian restaurant. Must visit!!

Beautiful Swaminarayan temple with huge area.. and perfect to spend one whole day with family and friends.. as they have their own canteen, washroom, parking area, and can arranged room for 3/4hrs if you wanna spend morning to evening in the campus. Bonus is- highly decorative architecture that's perfect for vlog or photoshoot.

4 stars for the beautiful architecture of the temple. It's bliss to the eyes. I visited on the weekend, I reached there at around 3 pm but we were not aware that the gates open at 4 pm. Then we had to wait in line to park our car. So yes, parking is available there and they charge 50 rupees for four wheeler parking. Charges are different for vehicles like mini buses or buses. There's no entry fee. However, you need to pay 50 rupees to pour water on the idol kept in a glass room in the underground section. I couldn't give one more star in the review because many parts of the temple area are not allowed to enter, few areas are inactive, for example, water fountains and so on which added value to the beauty earlier. A canteen is available there for tea and snacks and another joint is also available there for snacks and drinks. The entire area is quite big to accommodate a good number of devotees. Photography is currently allowed outside of the temple only.

Very Beautiful Place. But Administration need to do something about this mosquitoes. Proper Hygiene with sanitization should be taken care of. It's a really good place to visit for prayer and peace of mind.

Very nice temple. Big structure with stunning architecture. There's a big canteen. One can easily spend a part of their day

Then one can easily take Bus to go the tample..Best time to visit the Tample is evening. specially during the Sandhya Arati time.After evening the Tample is looking soo charming on electric light.

Beautiful view in evening time for lightibg. Car parking is available and maintained also. Cafeteria is also there. Various items are available there along with sweets and icecream. Very much neat and clean place which is very much needed for any devotional place.

Opening time of the temple is 7.45 am to 12 noon and 4 pm to 8 pm. Nice arrangement to visit the temple, take meal/tea snacks, collect momentum, parking space and wash room.
