Lord Venkateswara temple situated at Robbinsville township of New Jersey has been built with Rs 100 crore and is spread across 162 acres. It is the world's costliest and largest Hindu temple.
Over 2,000 artisans have labored over various parts of the temple at Dungarpur, Pindwada and Sangwada in Rajasthan. They have reportedly taken elements of both south and north Indian temples. Marbles from Italy Rajasthan were used and the finished parts were shipped from Mundra to New Jersey. A team of 5,000-master craftsmen worked on the construction, assembling and design in the US.
The complex, which has four floors, has an exhibit dedicated to Indian history and culture, a youth activity center. The embellished temple has ornate pillars and panels depicting scenes from the Ramayana and Mahabharata and ancient scriptures. The halls will have full-size idols of important leaders of the sect, according to reports. The Great Prayer Hall has a seating for 1000 people.
