This is an absolutely stunning and serene place for any religious Hindu. The temple is very well maintained and is located near the posh Malibu beach, so the drive sown there is also a spectacle. One can easily spend an hour there just praying or walking around. It's not too crowded on most days and also has a parking lot near the Temple.
Divine darshan of Sri Venkateswara Swami. You can also get darshan of SriVaishnava azhwars.
I could not remember the name of the person who gave us the tour, but we learned a lot and this person really enjoyed to share his culture and religion. It was a great experience

It is owned and operated by the Hindu Temple Society of Southern California. Built in the traditional South Indian style, it is frequented by followers of Hinduism in Southern California. It is one of the largest Hindu temples in the Western hemisphere.
Very nice temple in and around the LA region. From studio city/Universal Studios you have a direct buses to this places, if you are a tourist. Very calm and peaceful place. You also have a nice cafeteria that serves good food for the tourists.
I had visited this temple during the navaratri weekend. The temple was beautiful and the sevas performed invoked a sense of serenity . But sad to say cleanliness was missing. I had reached the temple by 11AM in the morning after a 2 hour drive . Could not use the restroom due to the unbearable stench and extremely dirty toilets .Hope the administration makes this their top priority as Cleanliness is next to Godliness and majority of the visitors spend considerable time to drive to this people and many of them senior citizens .
Excellent example of south indian hindu temple archtecture
A very good temple, particularly for the people living away from India. Surroundings are neat and clean.
It's a very nice and calm place situated in lap of nature outside town and far away from traffic, must visit in Evening hours to experience its beauty.
First time visited Malibu temple it was amazing. The temple is clean and neatly kept. Felt very calm. Temple is surrounded by green mountains. It was not crowded at all. Had a wonderful experience. Please visit this temple when you get a chance. You will not regret it.
A typical South Indian temple, very calm and peaceful. Pretty decent food court.
It's a very good temple with almost all the hindu Gods. Do check it out when you have time. Very peaceful place.
All the Swamis are good and the poojas are excellent and performed by Swamis with great Devotion unlike at other Temples where they perform in a hurry.
I love visiting Malibu temple . After the visit I usually sit for sometime outside the temple. It's calm and neatly kept.
Sundays and holidays ,good crowd in the morning hours, not that many in the evening.
After many visits, once I decided to take lunch served there and I loved it. If you prefer small quantity with not many varieties south India lunch, then it's for you . Its a good heavy lunch( 3$ per box) for 1 or 2.
