Shree Krishna Mandir officially opened the doors of its new Mandir on Monday 30th August 2010. This Mandir occupies a distinctive place in British Hindu history since it is the only traditional Panchayatan Mandir in the Western world with sacred areas dedicated to the Vedic Hindu Gods: Lord Ganesh, Lord Surya Narayan, Goddess Ambe Maa, Lord Shiva and Lord Vishnu (Krishna).

Shree Krishna Mandir is unique in being one of the few purpose-built Hindu temples in the UK to have adopted the principles of Vedic architecture based on the Vastu Shastra and Shilpa Shastra texts. An underlying theme in Vastu Shastra is harmony. Within the Mandir design, construction and rituals, we have invoked and sought harmony with the Earth, the Heavens and the Divine forces, thus ensuring that the Mandir is a sanctuary for meditation, worship and community life. The building of this Mandir according to sacred principles has transformed the site into a sacred place of pilgrimage.
