In my recent blog I shareed information about the the garden and the life sized sculptures of Radha Krishna you can check it out here.
At different corners of the Prem Mandir you will see numerous cultures mostly of Radha and Krishna and they are really really amazing. The artist has done a great job and you can clearly see the facial expressions, the addresses they are wearing the jewellery it feels all real. In the picture above you can see the Krishna plain flute and Radha setting with him. As the whole temple is made up of Italian marble which is exclusive and rare the whole temple is white and this sculpture suddenly catches your attention cause of the vibrant colours used in it. Feels like this sculptures give life to this Temple. The marble use hair is intricately carved it represent the craftsmanship of Indian artists.
The temple is so huge and it is made up in 54 acres of land including its gardens and fountains. It's a two stories Temple with height of 125 feet which is literally insane.
But that's not it the carvings on the wall of the temple shows stories in the form of Art from Bhagavad Gita and also from Ramayanam. To meet this Temple feel like a jewellery, just like a detailed work in a jewellery this temple is full of art and craft and detailed work.
Among all these marbles there are 64 marble panels that tells the story of Krishna during his childhood in the form of art and design. The whole Temple describe about the famous chapters of Mahabharata and about Ramayanam.
In each pillar, the art of deities are made along with the floral design and traditional motifs. At Prem Mandir there are 94 such pillars and you can imagine how much hard work has been done in each and every pillar to look them and to make them this beautiful.
The architecture of this temple is blend of modern and traditional North Indian temple that reflect the art devotion and spirituality. To create this jam it took literally 11 years and around thousand skilled artist contributed to this project.
