The Vinayaka temple - Ireland
Ireland in the recent past has a considerable inflow of Professionals from India. Almost everyone feels the necessity for a traditional hindu temple in Ireland. This would form a place of worship and also a place for communal and cultural growth. A set of like-minded people have stepped forward for this cause in building a Vinayaka temple ( Ganesh Temple) in Ireland.
