Related: About this forumNew Jersey Welcomes BAPS Hindu Temple -- One Of The Only Traditional Stone Mandirs In North America
Antonia Blumberg
Robbinsville, New Jersey may seem like an odd place for a religious pilgrimage, but that is exactly what it may become.

I've been to one of them. They're very interesting. They are devotees of Shiva. Open air huge white marble temples.
