Shree Raseshwari Radha Rani Temple

Shree Raseshwari Radha Rani Temple is the first Hindu temple built in Austin, Texas, and one of the largest Hindu temples in the United States. From large festivals and celebrations attended by thousands of people to smaller family ceremonies, the temple and ashram complex fulfills an important need for the community by providing a place of worship and a center for traditional Indian cultural activities.

The temple is designed in such a way that it captures the heart of a devotee and his mind feels a devotional excitement where he finds his beloved Radha Krishn closer to his heart. On both sides of the shrine there are large glass windows overlooking the hill, the native flowers, the holy pool Radha Kund, Maharas Mandal and the garden. It appears as if the shrine is situated in a true nikunj - a blossoming garden of a beautiful hilly area under the early morning sky where the fragrant breeze is caressing the temple of Shree Raseshwari Radha Rani.
