How We Review Temple Information
Pilgrims make real travel decisions from this data. Accuracy is not optional.
Published temple information is reviewed using the strongest sources available for that temple. We prioritise official sources for changeable details such as darshan timings, aarti schedules and registration requirements. Where no official portal or current primary source is available, we say so, qualify the information and ask visitors to confirm before travelling.
Four Steps Behind Our Reviews
Primary Sources First
Official temple trust websites, government portals (NIC, state tourism), and ASI notifications are our preferred first references. We use other reliable public references when a suitable official source is unavailable or additional context is needed.
Cross-Referenced
High-impact details (such as darshan timings, registration requirements, and seasonal dates) are compared with additional reliable sources where practical. The depth and date of review can vary by temple, so changeable information should still be confirmed before travel.
Periodic Review
Temple pages are reviewed and updated periodically. The review date is displayed on every temple detail page so pilgrims know how fresh the data is.
Uncertainty Is Flagged
Where data cannot be independently confirmed, we flag it with a "Verify before visit" notice rather than presenting uncertain data as established fact.
Sources We Use
Wherever possible, the sources we rely on are publicly accessible.
We investigate every report. Write to us and include the temple name, the incorrect data, and your source if you have one.
