    Too crowded and less instructions on what needs to be done
    The statue is amazing and a good place to take photos. But there is a lot of walking to do from the statue to the Dhyanalinga and other lingas which are situated 1 km away. No mobiles phones inside and pin drop silence. The only challenge was the information centers near the statue was empty so we didnt know what needs to be done after reaching at the statue. The transportation is there either by bullock cart or by small mini van. It was very crowded and i felt it could have been better organized,.

    Worth going there once.
    The statue is a masterpiece. You must visit this if you go to Coimbatore. It is about 40 km from the city. Lot of parking is available there. But there is o place to sit anywhere except you car. At night there is a light and sound show which you should not miss. Its a great show. There was rush of Sabarilama divotees in typical black dresses .

    Magnificent
    We wanted to watch the night show. Came here about 6pm. It took us about 1 and 1/2 hours from our hotel in The Residency Towers. The adhiyogi will take your breath away. They start preparing for the show by 6:45pm. We sat on the floor facing him. It was spectacular! The kids and I enjoyed every moment of it. Truly blessed to be here.

    IMPRESSIVE BUST OF LORD SHIVA
    The bust of AdiYogi, Lord Shiva, is the largest bust sculpture in the world, according to Guinness World Records. It is an impressive sight!. The only venue in this ISHA Yoga center where photography is allowed. Visit to the Meditation center and the various devotional sites and amenities are a short walk away, where photography and personal bags are to be deposited prior to entry. Overall the entire experience is outstanding!

    Good place
    Going on a temple visit trip sounds like a wonderful idea! Make sure to plan ahead, considering the locations, transportation, accommodations, and the specific temples you'd like to visit. It's also a good opportunity to learn about the history and significance of each temple you plan to include in your trip. Safe travels and enjoy your spiritual journey!

    Mesmerising
    The light and sound show begins at 7 pm and should not be missed. The place is crowded on weekends and holidays. If only there could be proper and numbered seating to ease the crowd it would be better for everyone. Otherwise the show is fantastic.

Once you enter the Isha yoga center you will come across this huge statue from far way and once you walk down the path you will be amazed to see the detailing done on the statue.
Do not ever miss the Sound & Light show which is the best and usally starts at 7:15PM in the evenings.

There is no shelter for sr. Citizens to relax and sit on the road towards the temple

You can provide atleast a bench in the gap of 20 feet on the side of the Approaching roads. Please implement this on top priority.

More carts from the car parking to temple should be provided.
