Nestled in the heart of a quiet suburban part of Livermore, the impressive Livermore Shiva-Vishnu Temple comes as a bit of a surprise. The temple architecture is typical of Southern Indian Hindu temples and features an impressive Gopura (an ornately decorated pyramidal tower over the main entrance). The Shiva-Vishnu temple is the largest Hindu temple in the Bay Area and all the Hindu religious deities are represented. Once you enter the temple you will find yourself in a spacious hall where religious ceremonies are held. The temple is also used as a cultural center and there are two huge commercial-sized kitchens where delicious vegetarian meals are prepared for devotees.
