One of the world's largest religious buildings is soon to open in India. The Temple of Vedic Planetarium is all set to open in Mayapur, West Bengal.
The temple will be bigger than the St. Paul's Cathedral located in the Vatican and the Taj Mahal in Agra.
The temple will also reportedly have the largest dome in the world and is the headquarter of the International Society of Krishna Consciousness (ISKON).
The construction for the temple had begun in 2010 and has a budget of $100 million.
It will have the capacity to accommodate nearly 10,000 people according to ISKCON temple customs.
It is expected to open by July or August 2023.
The Vedic Planetarium will house the Institute of Vedic Cosmology, which will research and discuss Vedic accounts of the universe.
