Hindu Community of Portugal- Radha Krishna Temple
The aim of this celebration organised by the Hindu Community of Portugal is to invite everyone to celebrate Christmas in an original way. In addition to guided tours of the Radha Krishna Temple, the festivities will also include music, Bollywood-style dancing, balloon modelling and Indian cuisine.
Since it opened in 1998, as well as being a place of worship and serving to preserve Indian traditions, the Radha Krishna Temple has aimed to be a space for togetherness and friendship, where cultural exchange, spirituality and solidarity amongst people can take place freely.
