ISKCON in Mayapur

The structure is already big, but the new one under construction is ginormous (gigantic + enormous.)   Pilgrimage from all over. The website isn't over representing anything.  One gets a sense of the Vatican as the Catholic equivalent.  There were A LOT of people, very commercial, many shops, ATM machines on the grounds, etc.  Another variation of spirituality, (zero to one thousand from the morning to this.)

One of several entrances to the complex.
