Krishna Temple Salt Lake City

"I had a wonderful experience here. Such a peaceful and calm place. I was able to learn what Hare Krishna actually means and was very moved by the wise words of the guru and his wife. I highly recommend."

"It’s a breathtaking place! Architectural beauty and symmetry. Peacocks running around. They cater vegetarian food. You have to see it up close and the surrounding mountains."

"Wonderful first time visit to Salt Lake City temple, if your in Utah this is a must see!"

"Very beautiful and clean premises. Big open area, has place to meditate, a temple shop. Peaceful."

"We went there this year when they had their Festival of Colors. It was really a lovely event, messy, but then that was part of the point. People were so friendly towards each other and everyone was really enjoying the event. The whole aura of the event was filled with kindness and happiness, it was one of those rare moments in which you feel there is still hope for humanity. People were happy to share their colored powders by tossing some at every passerby and getting rewarded by that person returning the gesture, along with kind words or a smile. The children got fully covered in colors faster than all the adults and all the people treated them with sweetness as they ran around underfoot patting and throwing color onto everyone around them. They also had some food vendors from which you could purchase authentic and delicious delights. As well as some vendors selling Indian handbags and jewelry, alongside another vendor offering to do mehndi henna tattoos. I would definitely go again, though perhaps next time, I will also take a mask or bandanna for my face, and maybe a shirt that goes higher up the neck and a hat. If you have light blond hair, the colored powder getting into your hair might end up staining the hair with color and refuse to be washed out even after several washes."
