Situated in Durban’s west, this is the biggest Hare Krishna temple in the southern hemisphere. The unusual building is designed in the shape of a lotus flower and is a treat for those interested in architecture or world religion. There is also a well-respected vegetarian restaurant (open 10.30am to 7pm, to 5pm Sundays) on the temple grounds.
