Field Trip to BAPS Hindu Temple!
BAPS Hindu Temple
On Friday, March 28th, FlexSchool Bronxville will take a full-school field trip to the BAPS Swaminarayan Akshardham in Robbinsville, NJ, a marvel of Hindu temple architecture and possibly the second largest Hindu temple globally, after Cambodia's Angkor Wat, UNESCO World Heritage Site. It stands as a beacon of Hinduism's universal values: peace, harmony, tolerance, service, and devotion.
Students will enjoy a 45-minute guided walking tour, time to explore with endless photo opportunities, and a chance to eat delicious and authentic Indian food at the cafe for lunch.
