Isha Foundation Chikkaballapura

Must-see sites. You will feel distinct vibes from the temple. On weekends, it can get a little crowded, but it is tolerable. Roads are constructed. You will find an excellent restaurant both at the entrance gate and inside the temple grounds. The food was wonderful and really yummy.

A beautiful location chosen aptly for this temple and centre. I think the best time to go here is just before sunset so you can catch the beauty of the setting sun behind Mahadev’s huge statue that gives an aura like appearance. It’s stunning
Also you can watch the Sound and Light show that is famous.
There is enough parking space there but a lot of parking area is uneven so bear that in mind. Entry is free and the shoes are taken off before entry and a token is provided to you for collection at exit point.
Everything from entry to exit is smooth. There are coffee ☕ shops at the exit for refreshments etc.
The washrooms at the exit are clean

Wonderful experience. Good and peaceful place. We missed evening light show at 7 pm. Because of time to reach home back.
Food also good. Normal rates. Road works are done.

Excellent place to visit. Super peaceful place and well maintained. Sit for a while and you feel different energy in your body..

The canteen is super with the best quality food. Must try all South Indian dishes. Sit

Good place to visit, good for a family oneday trip.

I had visited during on Sunday with my friends and the crowd was decent. This place is really beautifully designed. The best time to visit this place would be around 6 to 6:30PM so that you would see the light show which starts between 7 to 8:00PM. They are still constructing the road from the entrance so be careful with that. Small shops are open here and there to grab some snacks.

I went on a Monday, and the place looked nice with an okay crowd. It's best to visit around 6-6:30 for a light show between 7-7:30. Be careful with the ongoing road construction. You can find some small snack shops. Overall, it's a good place, but the last 3 km of roads are bumpy. June to September might have rain, so bring an umbrella. No shelter if it rains, but you can bring a mat. Limited food options, but there are toilets and parking. Weekends can be busy in the evening.

The place is amazing, surrounded by mountains from all sides . The place is very new as of now. So many construction works are still going to even make the place better even further. Still, you can visit and have a very positive vibe here .

Awesome place. Lots of parking space. The show is just breathtaking. The road leading to this place is newly built and has an amazing driving experience. Good food options available. There is no entry fee but you would have to pay for everything else, parking, laddoo etc.

It was a very devotional place, and I loved the lighting display. A must visit place. During Weekends the traffic will get worse, management needs to improve roads by widening it and using 2 different ways for entry and exit of vehicles.

The roads are still in construction to this place hence took around 1 hour to cover 1.5kms. Ample amount of parking space but too much dust as the roads are not completed. The idol of Shiva takes the centre light especially during the light show which starts at 7PM.

Advice -> never go on a weekend or public holiday, it took around 2.5hours to come out of the place & reach the main road.

Serene and beautiful!
One of the best places near Bangalore for a day trip with family. I went with my parent-in-laws and they loved the light show. This place has ample four wheeler parking. The grand statue of Lord Shiva is beautifully constructed and quite peaceful to look at. A must visit highly recommended place 😊

A must visit place. My suggestion is to go in the evening as the light show starts around 7 PM.
My Experience:
So me along with my family visited the Isha foundation on 24th December. ( As it's a long weekend) I highly suggest you to avoid visiting it here on long weekends as you will be stuck there. I myself stuck in the traffic for almost 2 hours for a distance of 3 KM.
But when we reached there the light show gave me peace.

Very good atmosphere and Laser show is highlight. It starts every day at 07:15PM for 15 mins. Road is bit under construction and for 3 kms you need to struggle but after you reach then you will have very peace atmosphere. Few food stalls are available and no need to worry for food.

Visited on 11th March. Roads are beautiful. The front yard is spacious & well maintained.

This place brings lot of peace and goosebumps for sure. I know this place would become more busy n popular in coming days. Roads will need to be improved last 3-4 kms but I am sure it would improve soon.. Missed the laser show but will surely visit shortly!

I visited this place morning time it's Awsome place..
Shiva Statue back side mountains and sky view was Awsome.
Perfect place with friends and family 👌👌
Location was inside chikbellabur.. While I visited time route was not good they are developing.

Really I loved the place espicially the shiva statue in nature 🙏🙏❤
Parking facility was there with charge...

This is a very holy place I would say. You would find Gigantic idol of Lord Shiva here. I loved the place. In background of the idol, view of hills was just mesmerizing.

Just beneath the Idol, there is a small shiva temple. Don't forget to visit that. While visiting this temple beneath the idol you might need to wait for sometime in the queue based on the footfall on that day. While coming out of the temple, you have the option to pay and collect prasadam. UPI, card payments are accepted but network might be an issue otherwise pay by cash.

Weekends are little crowded. While entering the main area, you need to open your shoes and keep it in a bag (will be provided), they will provide you token against the same. Using the same token shoes can be collected from exit area while exiting from the premises. This is free of cost. No entry fee for this place.

If you are visiting in noon or morning time, you may feel difficult to walk in the premises without any Shoe, if possible keep your socks in your legs.

You will hardly be getting any shades. So to avoid heat carry caps, umbrella etc.

Once your Darshan is completed, you are out of the temple, you can go and collect your shoe.

Try to visit in afternoon time like 4 to 4:30. Then you can enjoy the sunset with Lord shiva idol, followed by laser show in the evening.

Aarti starts at 7 PM everyday, around for 15 mins followed by mesmerizing laser show for 10-15 mins. During this time you need to be seated in the big area infront of the shiva temple. So for seating you can carry some news papers from home.

Before the laser show only before seating you can carry your shoes from exit counter by showing the token and again come back in seating area otherwise while exiting rush will be there to collect shoes.

After the end of laser show, try to come to parking quickly for your car. It would be a huge traffic jam as everyone will be returning at the same time. Early you come out, it would be better for you.

Washrooms are available and clean.

One point to remember that if the weather condition is bad like it is raining then the laser show might get canceled for that day.
