The Hindu Temple of Atlanta is located in Riverdale, Georgia, and serves the Metro Atlanta Hindu population. But, because of its proximity to the I-75, and its popularity, nearly 5-10% of the devotees are from the eastern seaboard, southern, and midwestern states. The temple is 9-miles away from the Hartsfield-Jackson International Airport terminal. It has been rated as one of the top 10 Hindu temples in the US.[1]

The temple was established on 19 October 1984[2] and closely conforms to temple architecture from the Pandya Empire.[3][4][5]
