Pilgrimage to the Albany, New York Hindu Temple
More than 75 Bhutanese people of all ages, made a pilgrimage to the nearest Hindu Temple in Albany, New York. This large group filled one school bus and two 15-passenger vans! This trip lasted all day and included many opportunities to reflect, pray and sing within the Temple. Everyone enjoyed a meal provided by volunteers from the Albany Temple. We thank everyone at the Temple for hosting us so kindly and graciously!
Here is a link to some of the photos that were taken on that pilgrimage!

Damber, Beda, Dickcha and Shichya Bhandari took a day trip to the Hindu Temple in Albany, New York on Sunday, May 17, 2009. The trip is about 3 hours drive each way. Below are some photos and videos from the excursion. Beda and Damber recommend a visit to this temple!
The temple is a very nice medium-sized temple. The temple is open every day. There is also a very large cultural center building beside the temple. The cultural center has a large kitchen, dining hall, classrooms and an auditorium with a stage for dramatic performances.
