Bharat Mata Mandir, Temple in India
Bharat Mata Mandir is a unique temple located in Varanasi, India. It's dedicated to 'Bharat Mata' meaning 'Mother India'.
The temple was inaugurated by Mahatma Gandhi in 1936 to promote nationalistic fervor among the Indians during colonial times.
Different from other temples, Bharat Mata Mandir houses a relief map of India instead of gods or goddesses. This signifies unity and integrity.
Opened all seven days, it takes around 45 minutes to visit the entire place.
Mandir doesn't house any idols or images but a massive map of India carved in marble.
