The glorious ‘Golden Temple’, in which the Goddess "Mahalakshmi" is the main deity, was constructed on 100 acres land with a blooming landscape at Siripuram village in Vellore district, Tamil Nadu.
This architectural marvel in gold was built by hundreds of goldsmiths and craftsmen from Tirumala Tirupati Devasthanam. It took around six years to complete the entire structure.
Even the central chandelier was made of gold. With 36 pillars around, the temple with Rajagopuram resembles the Tirumala temple.
Except the walking area, the entire structure, with intricate carvings and sculptures has been plated with gold. With the lighting arrangements that were made, the temple glitters even more during nights.
The messages of ‘Amma’ and quotes from Bhagawad Gita, Bible and Quran are displayed on either side of the pathway.
That makes the people not just to admire the ‘Golden Temple’, but to carry some messages and to gain some wisdom.
