Shri Hari Mandir
શ્રી હરિ મંદિર
A modern white marble temple within the Sandipani college campus, with well-kept gardens, solemn evening lights and worship rituals.
Shri Hari Mandir stands on the Sandipani College campus east of Porbandar. It was initiated by the religious teacher Rameshbhai Oza and completed in 2006. Built of white marble, it blends the Nagara-style tower of northern India with finely detailed carving, and it honours several avatars of Vishnu. Around the temple are fountains, lawns and a Vedic school. The environment is quiet and tidy, and it is especially beautiful when the lights come on in the evening. Entry is free. Shoes must be removed, dress should be modest, and photography inside the sanctum is prohibited. It is about 7 km from the city centre, roughly 15 minutes by tuk-tuk or taxi.
Opening hours
Daily, about 06:00–12:00 and 16:00–20:30
