Spreading the Science of
Krishna Consciousness

Who We are

ISKCON (International Society for Krishna Consciousness) is a Hindu religious organization that was founded in 1966 in New York City.

How It Works?

Calm, beautiful and spiritual place to enjoy your mornings or evenings. We reached there a little late around 12.15pm but it turned out to be a good time to visit there. As at 12:30pm is for Aarti time. We had an opportunity to attend the Aarti and have the Darshan until 1pm. As after 1pm Mandir will be closed for Darshan but the other parts of Mandir can still be accessed. We purchased the Bhagvad Gita from this place for which the price is very less. Overall a good experience.

ISKCON Katraj Road in Pune is one of the most prominent and beautiful temples in the city, attracting devotees and visitors alike. The temple, dedicated to Lord Krishna and Radha, is known for its grand architecture, peaceful ambiance, and spiritual significance. Situated in a serene location away from the hustle and bustle of the city, it provides a perfect environment for meditation and devotion. One of the most striking aspects of the temple is its large and well-designed structure, featuring intricate carvings, spacious halls, and a divine atmosphere that enhances the spiritual experience. The temple complex is well-maintained, with clean surroundings and well-organized facilities for visitors. Inside, the beautifully adorned idols of Lord Krishna and Radha, along with other deities, create a mesmerizing sight. The temple is especially vibrant during festivals like Janmashtami, when it is decorated beautifully, and thousands of devotees gather to celebrate with devotional songs, prayers, and prasadam distribution. The temple also has a large gathering hall where regular discourses, kirtans, and spiritual programs are conducted. The ISKCON community here actively engages in cultural and religious activities, making it not just a place of worship but also a center for learning and spiritual growth. There is also a prasadam (food) section, where visitors can enjoy delicious and sattvic vegetarian meals. The temple shop offers books, idols, and other devotional items, making it a great place for those interested in deepening their spiritual knowledge. However, one minor challenge is that the temple can get crowded, especially on weekends and during festivals, leading to longer waiting times to enter the main sanctum. Additionally, since the temple is located on Katraj Road, traffic congestion can sometimes be an issue while reaching the premises. Despite these small inconveniences, ISKCON Katraj Road is a must-visit for devotees, spiritual seekers, and even tourists looking for a peaceful retreat. Its grand architecture, devotional atmosphere, and community involvement make it one of Pune’s most significant religious landmarks. Whether you’re visiting for prayer, meditation, or simply to admire its beauty, the temple offers a truly enriching experience.

A visit to the ISKCON Temple in Pune is indeed something different. The construction of the temple is just marvelous and the beauty of the architecture and the location around the temple is quite impressive as well. All these combine with the fact that the temple is spotlessly clean and make the whole experience very pleasant. Energy in this place is very positive, it is good space for contemplating or just for relaxing. The cleanliness and the detail to which the temple is looked after is visible throughout the temple. I very strongly recommend this peaceful retreat to people looking for some spiritual healing or just a little break from the busy life of this vibrant city.

Such a nice place to visit, simple and cool Atmosphere. Everything is organised and cleanliness is at it most. Seperate footwear area, hand washing area. Gift shop opens at 10 AM, and large variety of items. On 500/- or over spent, they provide coupons and offers. Prasadam is outside the premises. Restaurants are costly. Free entry. Park only in iskcon parking spots. Don't park your vehicle outside. Beware of the parking, Kondhwa parking division is very fast while picking up your vehicle.
