- bhattesdJamshedpur, India329 contributionsOur recent visit to the ISKCON temple was extremely mesmerising. The construction of the temple is just marvellous and the beauty of the architecture and the location around the temple is quite impressive. The temple's architecture is stunning, with beautiful golden decorations reflecting the site's majesty and dedication. The deities are elegantly wrapped, and the decorations are bright, resulting in a peaceful and spiritual atmosphere. The temple priests performed the ceremonies with tremendous devotion, which contributed to the spiritual mood. The general cleanliness and upkeep of the temple grounds was outstanding. This temple is a must-see for everyone looking for a relaxing and spiritual experience. The Govindam restaurant provide very good tasty food at the entry gate.
They provide accommodation at a reasonable price. They also provide halls for marriage and other functions at cheap price.Written 11 December 2024This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC.

The only wait was for buying the tickets, which can be conveniently purchased online via a QR code. It would be even more engaging if they provided commentary or self-directed headphones.
The Aga Khan Palace, built by Sultan Muhammed Shah Aga Khan III, has a poignant history. Constructed to provide employment for famine-stricken villagers, the palace took five years to build at a cost of Rs 12 lakhs. Spanning 19 acres, with 6.9 acres covered by the palace and the rest by well-maintained gardens, it’s a sight to behold.
From 1953 to 1972, the palace housed a residential co-education school. In 1969, Aga Khan IV generously donated the palace to the people of India in honor of Gandhi and his philosophy. The Indo-Saracenic architecture, complete with pediments and turrets, adds to the palace's charm, and its 2.5-meter wide corridor encircling the entire building is a unique feature.
The Gandhi Museum within the palace, spread across six galleries, showcases numerous statues of Gandhi and others, with detailed exhibits on the Quit India Movement. Additionally, the samadhis of Kasturbha and Mahadev Desai are located here. The expansive, well-kept lawns offer a great opportunity for city dwellers to enjoy open spaces while learning about history and nature.Written 9 January 2025This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC.
