Across six continents, ISKCON’s vibrant temples and centers form a tapestry of Krishna consciousness from bustling metropolises to tranquil rural settings. North America hosts flagship sites like New York City’s Radha-Krishna Temple and Los Angeles’ Bhaktivedanta Manor, alongside community hubs in Toronto, Chicago, and Mexico City. In South America, Brazil sparkles with temples in São Paulo and Rio de Janeiro, while Argentina, Chile and Peru nurture devoted congregations.

Europe brims with activity: London’s iconic Bhaktivedanta Manor, Edinburgh’s serene centre, Paris’ Rue Saint-Jacques temple and Warsaw’s welcoming premises spring to life with kirtans and festive feasts. From Portugal’s Albufeira retreat to Moscow’s growing community spaces, devotees find home away from home. Across Scandinavia, Stockholm and Copenhagen host flourishing gatherings, and Spain boasts centers in Barcelona and Ibiza—perfect for meditation by the Mediterranean.

Asia remains ISKCON’s heartland. India’s Mayapur (West Bengal) stands as a global headquarters, surrounded by temples in Delhi, Mumbai, Bangalore and Vrindavan. Sri Lanka, Nepal and Bangladesh foster deep-rooted traditions, while newer outposts in Thailand, Cambodia and the Philippines invite both locals and travelers to explore bhakti practices. In Japan, Korea and Taiwan, centers blend ancient Eastern aesthetics with Gaudiya Vaishnava heritage.

Africa’s spiritual landscape features temples in South Africa’s Johannesburg and Cape Town, as well as Nairobi’s lively center in Kenya. Ghana and Uganda have also welcomed new ISKCON communities, reflecting a youthful, dynamic scene eager to share kirtan and prasadam. Down under, Australia’s New Govardhana (Gold Coast) and Melbourne sanctify landscapes, while New Zealand’s Auckland temple anchors the Southern Hemisphere’s bhakti movement.

Even in the Arctic’s near-inhospitable climes, floating programs on cruise ships and digital platforms mean no corner of the planet is truly off-limits. Virtual darshan and livestreamed festivals—like the recent 2025 Gaura Purnima celebrations in Mayapur—keep hearts united across time zones.

Every ISKCON temple doubles as a cultural hub: weekend vegetarian feasts, yoga workshops, children’s classes and eco-friendly initiatives weave spirituality into daily life. For anyone chasing a dose of ancient wisdom wrapped in contemporary flair, ISKCON’s global network is a beacon that lights the way.
