Hindu Temple, Dubai

The Hindu Temple is a structure clad in white marble with nine spires arranged around an octagonal footprint. Its design blends traditional Indian architectural styles with local Arabic design elements.

The Hindu community in Dubai first established a place of worship in Bur Dubai in 1958. The current structure opened in 2022 as a much larger facility designed to serve the expanded community.

The temple serves as a gathering place for devotees who come to honor gods from different regions of the Indian subcontinent. People offer flowers and join prayers throughout the day, creating a living space of worship and community connection.

The temple opens every day and provides facilities designed for visitors with varying mobility needs. You should know that certain times of day draw larger crowds, particularly during prayer hours.

The roof features traditional Arabic lattice patterns that create shifting light and shadow inside. This blend of Indian and Arabic details reflects the layered history of the city itself.
