Mainland Europe’s biggest Hindu temple to be built in The Hague

The biggest Hindu temple complex on the European mainland is to be built in The Hague, Trouw reports on Friday.


A consortium of three Hindu groups is building three temples on a site behind the Hollands Spoor railway station. The complex will also include 45 apartments and is set to open in 2014.
Some 1% of people living in the Netherlands is Hindu and Hindus account for the largest immigrant group in The Hague, the paper said.
