Sri Venkateswara Temple, Hindu temple in Penn Hills, United States
The temple features traditional South Indian architecture with granite structures, detailed carvings, and a prominent tower representing two hands and a head.
The temple originated in 1972 when Pittsburgh Hindus created a shrine in a store basement, leading to its official construction and consecration in 1977.
Regular celebrations of Hindu festivals include Diwali, Navaratri, and Pongal, accompanied by traditional music performances and religious ceremonies throughout the year.
The temple maintains daily worship schedules, provides on-site parking facilities, and operates a cafeteria serving traditional Indian meals to visitors.
Fifteen sculptors and an architect from India ensured the construction followed sacred Hindu texts, placing the central shrine on the second floor using dirt pillar support.
