What To Expect

New York City

Today we will go to the BAPS Shri Swaminarayan Mandir in New Jersey, which is the second largest in the world and the largest in the United States. The marble materials of the building were first carved by hundreds of craftsmen in India, then shipped to the United States and installed and constructed by more than 10,000 volunteers. The magnificent architecture, exquisite and gorgeous carvings, and the quiet and mysterious atmosphere are very exotic. Afterwards, go to the Grounds For Sculpture, which has a large number of modernist sculptures and carefully manicured landscapes. The founder Seward Johnson said that he hopes that the sculpture park can "let people around the world feel the emotional nourishment brought by the powerful and beneficial connection between art and nature." You can also find the commonality between nature and art here. Finally, return to New York. Itinerary: New York→BAPS Shri Swaminarayan Mandir(2 hours) → Grounds For Sculpture (optional, 2.5 hours) → New York
