点评:While this place holds value and significance for certain communities, for others it is a regular mandir. I feel its very commercialised, and i am writing this review for knowledge of people only. No bad experience, but highly commercialised place. Me and my husband visited this yest (Oct 29, 2024) and the car dropped us far behind, had to first take auto reach the entry passage. Then, flock of guys came and said we can arrange for VIP darshan in 50 bucks for you. Now, we as naive people agreed to go for it. As such i could not find too much rush yest but it was better to take help of local folks to navigate inside.
Then, there are some 3 categories and if u want darshan together as a couple in VIP u need to pay 1500 per person plus dakshana expected by each of the pandits there. Overall we spent around 5k just for darshan (this is minus the cab fare). No doubt that they gave a good experience of taking us around in the mandir but I wasn’t looking for it. My feeling is that one shouldnt commercialise and capitalise on god at this level. The overall place looks like market than a religious place.
Tbh i actually enjoyed the vibe and peace of Ekling mandir which has ancient sculptures and we spent 0 amount there.
翻译:虽然这个地方对某些社区具有价值和意义,但对其他人来说,它只是一个普通的寺庙。我觉得它非常商业化,我写这篇评论只是为了让人们了解。没有不好的经历,但商业化程度很高的地方。我和我丈夫昨天 (2024 年 10 月 29 日) 参观了这里,车把我们远远地落在了后面,不得不先乘坐自动车到达入口通道。然后,一群人过来说我们可以为您安排 50 美元的 VIP darshan。现在,我们这些天真的人同意去了。因此,昨天我发现不太着急,但最好还是请当地人帮忙在里面导航。
然后,有 3 个类别,如果您想作为 VIP 夫妇一起 darshan,您需要支付每人 1500 加上那里每个 pandit 所需的 dakshana。总的来说,我们光是 darshan 就花了大约 5k(这是减去出租车费)。毫无疑问,他们带我们参观了这座寺庙,给了我们一次很好的体验,但我并没有寻求这种体验。我的感觉是,人们不应该在这种层面上商业化和利用上帝。这个地方整体上看起来像市场,而不是宗教场所。
说实话,我真的很享受埃克林神庙的氛围和宁静,那里有古老的雕塑,我们在那里花了零钱。
