Absolutely Divine Place to visit. Finding this place made our day on the last day of Year 2021, What a way to start 2022. This is probably after a long time I have seen so many deities in one place. This Temple definitely makes you feel like you are in a Temple from back in India. Yes, this temple style is more inclined to the south Indian style. Most folks will definitely feel right at home here, no doubt about that. The amount of effort the priests take to dress up (Alankara) every single deity is admirable. Fantastic choice of cloth material, colors, the various flower combinations, the various nuts and fruit choices is impeccable. This is what made this place divine and stand out in my opinion. Apart from being able to speak English, most of the priests speak three of the South Indian languages (Kannada, Tamil, Telugu, in alphabetical order), and Hindi to a good extent. Since I speak fluently all of the languages listed above, it was a breeze. The Temple is maintained absolutely clean inside out. The interior floor was so clean, I could eat of the floor, that should give some comfort for parents with tiny tots, who usually love to roll around on the floor. All of the priests we met and all of the people in the kitchen and in the main corridor were very friendly and amicable. The Kitchen is absolutely clean and the price of the food is very reasonable compared to the quality and quantity you get for your money. The food offered is of the South Indian type (Sambar Rice, Yogurt Rice with pickle, Muruku, Laddu (2 per bag), Boondi, Mango Lassi, Kesari, Upma and many more depending on what's on the menu for the day). Trays are provided to carry food to the table. You have a choice of either eating inside the building right beside the cafeteria (which can probably house around 125+ people at a time) or outside under a canopy (can house around 25+ people at a time). All of the food items are individually packed either in a plastic container with lid or in a zip lock bag. Free polythene bags are provided to carry food home. We loved the food so much, we bought home quite a bit for our dinner that night. Credit/Debit cards are accepted both in the main temple above for Archana and other ceremonies, and In the Kitchen below. The main temple corridor has a small indoor stall set up for devotees who wish to buy clothes towards contributing towards a certain deity alankara. Again, Credit/Debit Cards are accepted here. Restrooms are really well maintained and of good size, located adjacent to the Kitchen (just close enough), indoors on the first floor. The Main Temple is on the Second Floor. Space for Washing your feet is available both on the first floor by the Kitchen and by the front door on the second floor Temple entrance, and so is the space to hang your coats (plenty of hangers available) and leave your foot wear in designated cubbies (which are plenty on both floors). I would suggest, right after parking your car, you go straight to the First floor Kitchen area from the back of the temple (clean tarred pathway goes to the back of the Temple), leave your coats and foot wear, wash your feet and hands and either use the restroom or just head to the second floor through the steps from inside the first floor. This way, especially in winter, you will free yourself from wearing the heavy coat indoors and In the Temple, as it will get really hot if you wear one. The Temple and the Kitchen is maintained at a very good temperature, so you will not need to layer up and still be comfortable inside. Kitchen is open the same times as the Temple. I would suggest calling them a day ahead to make sure of the hours, they seem to have many special days in a year, which may or may not coincide with any Hindu festival. As for the parking, Among the various parking lots spread around the temple, it can take at least a 100+ cars. There is asphalt finished parking area on all sides of the temple and there is even more extra space in the barn within 50 feet of the main entrance. This Barn can easily take 20 cars.

One of the oldest Hindu Temples in the DMV. They still follow great religious beliefs and practices

Traveled from newyork to visit this temple. The temple is beautifully constructed, and the deities inside are shiva and vishnu's family, so the name of the temple. I loved the anantapadmanabha swamy darshanam. It's a must visit temple for some positive vibes. Archana is performed inside. There were some maintenance works happening inside during our visit. The day we visited, there was an annual food Bazar happening. It was fully crowded, and people visited the temple and enjoyed a variety of Indian dishes here. There were regular temple menu and special menu for the annual food Bazar. We had masala dosa, panipuri, pav bhaji, mango Lassi, puri chole, and dahipuri in our lunch. Outdoor seating was available. There is a kids' play area with slides n swings.

The best pilgrimage place. This is one temple with most of the gods in one place. There is a separate template for each god and goddess, so we don't have to wait in a queue. We can keep moving where there is no rush and move on. However, starting from Ganesh, Vishnu, Shiva, Auyappa Swami, Hanuman, Lakshmi, Saraswathi, Anantha Padmanabhan, and other gods too. Most people will Shirdi sai baba which is on the ground floor behind the auditorium hall. Never miss the prasadam.

The temple radiated positive energy. Went there on a Saturday, and the venkateshwara swamy Pooja was just mesmerizing. The deities were decorated beautifully.

Beautiful temple, all deities have an uniquely blissful presence which awakens an auspicious nature in our awareness. Noteworthy deities are Mahaalakshmi, Hanumaan, Anantha padmanaabha & Venkatesha!! Prasaad is amazing, dont miss this beautiful temple if you are in this neighborhood.

Most peaceful area and very pleasant staff if anyone one spent some time here they are blessed and gets to very very positive energy,one temple in lots of gods here feeling very devine Must visit everyone this temple was located in very pleasant and peaceful area and also very spacious

This is one of the famous well known temple for people in Virginia, Delaware, New Jersey, New York. If you haven't visited, please visit once. Lord Shiva, Sri Anantha Padmanabha , Sri Venkateshwara are main deities here. We visit this place every year and suggest you too visit this temple.

We visited this temple on a weekday evening 6:30 and it was raining. The temple is huge with nice parking space. It was such a right time that we got to be there for anathapadma abhisheka and it was a wonderful experience. You can also witness huge lord venkataramana, shiva linga, karthekiya, Ganesha and much more deities. The canteen also has tasty food for very reasonable price. We got to meet Purohitru from andra who knew Kannada and felt blessed. Overall a memorable visit ! Will definitely visit again. Learning the history of temple being built in 1991 was very informative and surprising. The pooja being done in White House on Diwali was from this temple.
