List of Hindu temples in India

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

This is a list of major Hindu temples in India, by state.

This is a dynamic list. For example, Tirumala Tirupati Devasthanams (self-described as "the world's richest temple trust") has an ongoing campaign to build a replica of the iconic Lord Venkateswara Swamy temple in Tirupati in every Indian state and union territory that does not yet have one. The trust has developed 58 temples since 1933, mostly in the South Indian states of Andhra Pradesh, Tamilnadu, and Telangana. It most recently opened a temple in Jammu in June 2023. It also plans to construct "smaller temples in remote and backward villages in South Indian states."[1]
