Lonely Planet review

Amid palms and manicured lawns, the extensive, peaceful Belur Math religious centre is the headquarters of the Ramakrishna Mission. Its centrepiece is the huge 1938 Ramakrishna Mandir ( -12.30 & - ) which manages to look like a cathedral, Indian palace and Istanbul's Aya Sofya all at the same time. That's perfectly in keeping with the message of 19th-century sage Ramakrishna Paramahamsa who preached the unity of all religions.
