The centuries-old tradition of Hinduism has ensured a huge amount of temples in India. Some of these are not what you might expect. Can you imagine worshipping at the shrine of a rat? Perhaps,\u00a0to many tourists, this is unthinkable. However, any <a href=\"https:\/\/www.exoticca.travel\/asia\/indian-subcontinent\/india\">luxury vacation package to India<\/a> reveals a wealth of surprises. Deep in religious mysticism, the temples in India have to be seen to be believed. Here we have compiled a list of the 10 oldest temples in India for tourists. Hopefully, this will encourage you to book a trip to the land of spice very soon!<br \/>\n<span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">This temple reveres the goddess of destruction, Kali. Worshipping this goddess herself is not unheard of. However, this temple is a little different. The altar of gifts is often laden with Chinese food. This includes from noodles to dim sum. The reason for this is that the temple is located in Chinatown. A district with a large population of Chinese immigrants. The most unusual aspect of this temple is that traditional Chinese do not affiliate themselves with Indian religions. However, here we have a little piece of curiosity in the big city. <\/span><\/p>\n<div id=\"ez-toc-container\" class=\"ez-toc-v2_0_62 counter-flat ez-toc-counter ez-toc-grey ez-toc-container-direction\">\n<p class=\"ez-toc-title\">Index<\/p>\n<label for=\"ez-toc-cssicon-toggle-item-65e5ec852c6f0\" class=\"ez-toc-cssicon-toggle-label\"><span class=\"\"><span class=\"eztoc-hide\" style=\"display:none;\">Toggle<\/span><span class=\"ez-toc-icon-toggle-span\"><svg style=\"fill: #999;color:#999\" xmlns=\"http:\/\/www.w3.org\/2000\/svg\" class=\"list-377408\" width=\"20px\" height=\"20px\" viewBox=\"0 0 24 24\" fill=\"none\"><path d=\"M6 6H4v2h2V6zm14 0H8v2h12V6zM4 11h2v2H4v-2zm16 0H8v2h12v-2zM4 16h2v2H4v-2zm16 0H8v2h12v-2z\" fill=\"currentColor\"><\/path><\/svg><svg style=\"fill: #999;color:#999\" class=\"arrow-unsorted-368013\" xmlns=\"http:\/\/www.w3.org\/2000\/svg\" width=\"10px\" height=\"10px\" viewBox=\"0 0 24 24\" version=\"1.2\" baseProfile=\"tiny\"><path d=\"M18.2 9.3l-6.2-6.3-6.2 6.3c-.2.2-.3.4-.3.7s.1.5.3.7c.2.2.4.3.7.3h11c.3 0 .5-.1.7-.3.2-.2.3-.5.3-.7s-.1-.5-.3-.7zM5.8 14.7l6.2 6.3 6.2-6.3c.2-.2.3-.5.3-.7s-.1-.5-.3-.7c-.2-.2-.4-.3-.7-.3h-11c-.3 0-.5.1-.7.3-.2.2-.3.5-.3.7s.1.5.3.7z\"\/><\/svg><\/span><\/span><\/label><input type=\"checkbox\"  id=\"ez-toc-cssicon-toggle-item-65e5ec852c6f0\" checked aria-label=\"Toggle\" \/><nav><ul class='ez-toc-list ez-toc-list-level-1 ' ><li class='ez-toc-page-1'><a class=\"ez-toc-link ez-toc-heading-1\" href=\"https:\/\/www.exoticca.com\/us\/blog\/top-ten-most-curious-temples-in-india\/#Kali_Singh_Temple_Uttar_Pradesh\" title=\"Kali Singh Temple, Uttar Pradesh\">Kali Singh Temple, Uttar Pradesh<\/a><\/li><li class='ez-toc-page-1'><a class=\"ez-toc-link ez-toc-heading-2\" href=\"https:\/\/www.exoticca.com\/us\/blog\/top-ten-most-curious-temples-in-india\/#Sinking_Shiva_Varanasi\" title=\"Sinking Shiva, Varanasi\">Sinking Shiva, Varanasi<\/a><\/li><li class='ez-toc-page-1'><a class=\"ez-toc-link ez-toc-heading-3\" href=\"https:\/\/www.exoticca.com\/us\/blog\/top-ten-most-curious-temples-in-india\/#Disappearing_Temple_of_Vadodara\" title=\"Disappearing Temple of Vadodara\">Disappearing Temple of Vadodara<\/a><\/li><li class='ez-toc-page-1'><a class=\"ez-toc-link ez-toc-heading-4\" href=\"https:\/\/www.exoticca.com\/us\/blog\/top-ten-most-curious-temples-in-india\/#The_Bullet_Baba_Jodhpur\" title=\"The Bullet Baba, Jodhpur\">The Bullet Baba, Jodhpur<\/a><\/li><li class='ez-toc-page-1'><a class=\"ez-toc-link ez-toc-heading-5\" href=\"https:\/\/www.exoticca.com\/us\/blog\/top-ten-most-curious-temples-in-india\/#Akshardham_Delhi\" title=\"Akshardham, Delhi\">Akshardham, Delhi<\/a><\/li><li class='ez-toc-page-1'><a class=\"ez-toc-link ez-toc-heading-6\" href=\"https:\/\/www.exoticca.com\/us\/blog\/top-ten-most-curious-temples-in-india\/#Belur_Math_Kolkata\" title=\"Belur Math, Kolkata\">Belur Math, Kolkata<\/a><\/li><li class='ez-toc-page-1'><a class=\"ez-toc-link ez-toc-heading-7\" href=\"https:\/\/www.exoticca.com\/us\/blog\/top-ten-most-curious-temples-in-india\/#Karni_Mata_Deshnok\" title=\"Karni Mata, Deshnok\">Karni Mata, Deshnok<\/a><\/li><li class='ez-toc-page-1'><a class=\"ez-toc-link ez-toc-heading-8\" href=\"https:\/\/www.exoticca.com\/us\/blog\/top-ten-most-curious-temples-in-india\/#Tirumala_Venkateswara_Temple_Andhra_Pradesh\" title=\"Tirumala Venkateswara Temple, Andhra Pradesh\">Tirumala Venkateswara Temple, Andhra Pradesh<\/a><\/li><li class='ez-toc-page-1'><a class=\"ez-toc-link ez-toc-heading-9\" href=\"https:\/\/www.exoticca.com\/us\/blog\/top-ten-most-curious-temples-in-india\/#Guruvayur_Shree_Kerala\" title=\"Guruvayur Shree, Kerala\">Guruvayur Shree, Kerala<\/a><\/li><li class='ez-toc-page-1'><a class=\"ez-toc-link ez-toc-heading-10\" href=\"https:\/\/www.exoticca.com\/us\/blog\/top-ten-most-curious-temples-in-india\/#Travelling_further_afield_for_more_temples_in_India\" title=\"Travelling further afield for more temples in India\">Travelling further afield for more temples in India<\/a><\/li><\/ul><\/nav><\/div>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Kali_Singh_Temple_Uttar_Pradesh\"><\/span>Kali Singh Temple, Uttar Pradesh<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">This is a temple entirely devoted to cattle. Cattle are prized in India and so it is not bizarre to think there are temples dedicated solely to the animal. Devotees travel from all over the region to leave gifts and say prayers for the animal. They often leave food and make milk products within the temple itself.<\/span><\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Sinking_Shiva_Varanasi\"><\/span>Sinking Shiva, Varanasi<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">This temple is currently abandoned, due to safety reasons. However, in the past, it was well-known as a religious site. It was built next to the river banks. With the time, as the river grew, the temple eventually began to submerge. It is unique to India and a great photo opportunity.<\/span><\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Disappearing_Temple_of_Vadodara\"><\/span>Disappearing Temple of Vadodara<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Much like the previous temple, this religious site was built close to water. It stands in the Arabian Sea and can only be seen at low tide. Take care not to be there when the tide comes in! It is still used by the people of the town and is a curious example of India\u00b4s culture. <\/span><\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"The_Bullet_Baba_Jodhpur\"><\/span>The Bullet Baba, Jodhpur<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">This is one of the most interesting religious sites in all of India. This temple is focused on the worship of an old motorcycle, the Bullet. People regularly offer the shrine liquor and food. It has become a talisman of road safety. A kind of St. Christopher for travelers. <\/span><\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Akshardham_Delhi\"><\/span>Akshardham, Delhi<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">This religious site is closer to what we would associate with temples in India. However, it was built in 2005 and is entirely modern. It has well over 200 pillars and 20,000 idol sculptures. They all were made by hand by local artisans. It regularly attracts tourists and is a highlight of any trip to India.<\/span><\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Belur_Math_Kolkata\"><\/span>Belur Math, Kolkata<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">This temple is unique not only to India but to most of the world. It combines Hindu, Christian and Islamic architecture in one building. The purpose is to highlight the unity of religion and is truly breathtaking. <\/span><\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Karni_Mata_Deshnok\"><\/span>Karni Mata, Deshnok<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">This temple is not for the fainthearted. The subject here is the worship of rats. Locals believe that the animals are reincarnations of the goddess Karni and her children. Rats are common here and are treated as sacred. <\/span><\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Tirumala_Venkateswara_Temple_Andhra_Pradesh\"><\/span>Tirumala Venkateswara Temple, Andhra Pradesh<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">This is one of the world most visited temples in India. It is also notorious for being the richest in the country. Visitors regularly make offerings to the god of prosperity Venketeshwara in the hope to gain riches. It is equally popular among locals and is often packed with devotees receiving blessings.<\/span><\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Guruvayur_Shree_Kerala\"><\/span>Guruvayur Shree, Kerala<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">This temple is considered to be Vishnu\u00b4s choice among the rest of all the temples in India. He was supposed to establish here his residence on Earth. It dates back hundreds of centuries and is a fine example of traditional Indian architecture. This temple is one of the holiest and most famous in India. In fact, the idol of Krishna is considered to be the best in the world. You can also feed the temple elephants here, which makes for an interesting experience. <\/span><\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Travelling_further_afield_for_more_temples_in_India\"><\/span>Travelling further afield for more temples in India<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">This is just a short list of the many curious temples in India. There are hundreds more and it would take a lifetime to see them all. From the Hindu complexes of Tamil Nadu to temples made famous by celebrities in Maharashtra, there is something to satisfy any curiosity. Touring the temples of India is a wonderful way to experience this intriguing country. Glimpsing into the past is also a glimpse into the exciting future of a sub-continent whose star is rising quickly.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">If this has inspired you to visit at least some temples in India,<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> please check out Exoticca <\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">for information on <a href=\"https:\/\/www.exoticca.travel\/\">luxury vacation packages and tours<\/a> to this wondrous country.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.exoticca.travel\/asia\/indian-subcontinent\/india\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter\" src=\"https:\/\/d19lhji18zvyho.cloudfront.net\/img\/destination\/country\/india.png\" alt=\"luxury package tours to India\" width=\"756\" height=\"327\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>India is a land of mystery.
