Temple Tour with Taste: What to Eat & Buy in India's Holiest Cities


Introduction: A Spiritual Journey of Taste and Tradition

Temple tours in India are not only a visit to a holy place - they can be a full-fledged spiritual journey with all the faith, rituals, and cultural discovery. While darshan and aartis are the key components of the tour, food and shopping are two additional experiences that play an essential role in uncovering the connection to local traditions. Each holy city and pilgrimage destination can vary greatly when it comes to satvik temple prasad, street food, and local souvenirs. In this blog, we highlight what you can eat and buy from India's most spiritual pilgrimage sites including Mathura, Vrindavan, Ayodhya, Kashi, Rishikesh and beyond. Please join Vrindavan Mathura Tourism on a divine quest for food and faith.
