Shiva Vishnu Temple of South Florida History:
In 1996, we began the construction of a traditional Dravidian-style temple under the direction of Chief Architect Dr. Ganapati Sthapati of Chennai India, a well-known temple builder of international renown. After obtaining adequate permits, construction began in April 1999. Twelve shilpis from Mahabalipuram, India, arrived in April 2000 to begin the Indianization of the temple.
The temple complex has two new buildings. The front building is the traditional temple building with two Raja Gopurams (entrance towers) and two Vimana Gopurams (towers) above each of the main Shiva and Vishnu Garbagrahas (shrines). The total area of the temple is approximately 6,200 square feet. The temple’s architectural style belongs to Chola, and Pallava dynasty period (10th century) for Shiva and Parivar shrines, and the period of the Vijayanagara dynasty (12th century) for the Venkateshwara and Parivar shrines. The Ayyappa Shrine is built according to the Kerala architectural style.
The second building at the back is the community hall, which opened in April 2001. It has a capacity of 300 people and can be rented for weddings, various celebrations and cultural activities.
Mahakumbhabhishekam and Pranaprathishtapana of our new temple were held from 23 to 25 November 2001 and are now open to the public. We have four well-trained priests from India who offer daily services in the tradition of Shiva Agama and Pancharathra Agama.
