Krishna Temple Finds a New Home A new Krishna Temple is now under the earliest phase of construction after an official ground breaking and prayer ritual on Sunday the 10th of November. This new Temple will be located in the Southeastern portion of the Spanish Fork valley in the Central Wasatch Range. While the Krishna devotees have spent close to 10 years as a portion of the community they have not had an official temple, especially one of the magnitude, scale and artistic character as the one currently under construction. It is a replica of traditional Indian Architecture and, when completed in 2 to 2 1/2 years will be visible from almost any point in the area, including by motorists on I-15.
