ISKCON Temple Chennai, Hindu temple in Sholinganallur, India.

The ISKCON Temple Chennai spreads across 1.5 acres with three teak-wood altars housing deities of Radha Krishna, Lalita, Vishaka, Jagannath, Baladeva, and Subhadra.

The temple construction began after securing 6.5 acres in Injambakkam in 2000, following ISKCON's presence in Chennai since the early 1970s under A.C. Bhaktivedanta Swami Prabhupada's guidance.

The temple design incorporates Pallava and Kalinga architectural elements, with marble flooring depicting Hindu universes centered around Mount Meru according to Vedic cosmology.

Visitors can access the temple daily from 7:30 AM to 1:00 PM and 4:00 PM to 8:00 PM, with the evening worship concluding at 9:00 PM.

The ISKCON Centre for Value Education offers spiritual courses including Bhakti Shastri and Disciple programs, teaching ancient Indian philosophical texts through modern methods.
