Itinerary: New York → BAPS Shri Swaminarayan Mandir, Robbinsville (105 mins) → Longwood Gardens (Optional, 120 mins) → New York BAPS Shri Swaminarayan Mandir, Robbinsville In Sanskrit, Mandir means a place where the mind becomes still and experiences inner peace. Since Vedic times, India's sages have been enlightened with profound spiritual truths that served as basis of their rituals, philosophies, scientific discoveries and religious faith. As an expression of their spiritual faith, the yogis evolved and created beautiful Mandirs to uphold these traditions. In a similar token, this Mandir aims to serve as a place of understanding and appreciation of India art, culture and religion for generations to come. It will stand as a sanctuary for countless men and women, who will be able to sustain their culture and heritage in the form of arts, language, music, and spiritual learning. The Mandir will provide a platform to encourage the act of giving back to our communities through various charitable efforts like Walkathons, Health Fairs, Blood Drives, and more. The BAPS Shri Swaminarayan Mandir in Robbinsville, NJ will inspire the onlookers through its divinity, architecture, and humanitarian efforts for generations to come. Longwood Gardens The area that is not Longwood Gardens has been functioning as a public garden in some form or another since 1798. By the middle of the 19th century, the property was an impressive arboretum.
