Indians Temple – Bandar Abbas

Hindu Temple is one of the remarkable historical monuments in Bandar Abbas which is located on Imam Khomeini Street, across from the marketplace. The building was constructed in 1310 AH (1892 AD) during the reign of Mohammad Hassan Khan Sa'd-ol-Malek, the then ruler of Bandar Abbas, through the offers of Hindus collected by Indian merchants. The building of this temple is mainly a central square room on which there is a dome. The architectural style of this dome distinguishes it not only from the buildings of Persian Gulf seaboards but also from the whole Iran. The design of this monument is completely inspired by Indian architecture.
