BAPS Hindu Mandir and Cultural Precinct in Kemps Creek

12 March 2024

On Friday 20 October, I, along with the Member for Liverpool, paid a visit to the construction site of the new BAPS Hindu Mandir and Cultural Precinct in Kemps Creek. This new precinct, set on a 25-acre site, will be the largest in Australia and New Zealand upon completion. The precinct will include a temple, assembly and dining halls, and a children's playground. The impressive size and scale of the temple is only fitting for our Western Sydney region, whose rich multicultural character includes many of the Hindu faith. This grand place of worship, in close proximity to the Western Sydney Airport, will be a significant feature for both locals and those travelling to Sydney. It was also a fitting venue to host many of the festivals BAPS hold throughout the year that attract thousands. Thank you to the construction team at the site and BAPS members for showing us around, I look forward to returning to see this important cultural precinct upon completion.
