The new BAPS Swaminarayan Hindu Mandir in Paris is a landmark not only for India-France relations, but also for the global natural stone industry.
Prime Minister Narendra Modi described the project as “Made in India and Built in France.”
Behind those words lies an even more compelling story for international stone buyers:
🪨 Indian stone.
🇮🇳 Indian craftsmanship.
🇫🇷 French engineering.
🌍 A global landmark.
A significant amount of the temple’s stone was carved in India before being transported to France and assembled into an extraordinary architectural creation.
