Janardana Temple, Guwahati Overview
Perched on the hillock of Shukleshwar on the Shukleshwar ghats of the Brahmaputra river in Guwahati, Janardana Temple is dedicated to Lord Vishnu. Set amidst the beautiful backdrop of the Brahmaputra river and the lush green valleys of Guwahati, the shrine is a mesmerising spot and a sight to behold. The origin of the temple cannot be traced; however, it is believed to have been renovated sometime in the 17th century. The shrine is a wonderful amalgamation of Buddhist and Hindu architectural styles, incorporating design elements from both of them. The interior walls are milky white with elaborate carvings of deities all over them.
The main sanctum of the temple enshrines a Buddhist statue and is a revered place of meditation and worship by both Hindu and Buddhist pilgrims. The prayer hall is one of the most serene places in the complex. Besides, the quiet and calm in the temple premises are beyond compare and attracts tourists in hordes from far and wide.
