Doors Open Toronto - Hindu Mandir
June 24th, 2008 Andrew RossA few weeks ago, during Doors Open Toronto, I visited the wonderful Hindu temple constructed north of the city last year. It’s officially known as a Mandir, and it’s the only building of it’s kind in Canada. This truly beautiful structure was built by 1,800 craftsmen using ancient building techniques and thousands of tonnes of hand carved marble, limestone and sandstone. There is no structural steel used in the construction and it is built to last more than 1,000 years.
