Devotees may have to climb 4 to 5 steps after which is a circular lawn with a circular cemented area at the centre of which is a fountain. In the walls of the outer peripheral are several murals and paintings depicting various Avathars of Sri Maha Vishnu. This looks very attractive to the eyes of the onlookers. A pair of Divine Feet is seen here. To the right is a temporary stage which is South facing and functions related to the ISKCON Temple could be conducted. Devotees may have to climb 5 more steps to reach the level of the Temple premises.
The Temple has a small Gopuram atop which the Temple Flag flutters all the time. There are several Seva Counters to the left where tickets for various Sevas can be obtained. The Main Temple is East facing. This Temple is said to be built by His Holiness A.C.Bakthi Vedantha Swamy Prabhupadha. The Presiding Deity here is Sri Krishna who is an Avathar or incarnation of Sri Maha Vishnu. This is a newly built Temple by the International Society of Krishna Consciousness. Most of the Temple building is a white marble and there are lovely paintings in various gorgeous colours. The Sanctum Sanctorum holds the Deities of Sri Jagannath (Sri Krishna) along with Sri Balarama and Sri Subhadra and these Deities together would keep the Devotees spellbound for their sheer Divinity and Architectural beauty.
All the three Deities are East facing in the Sanctum Sanctorum. In the Sanctum Sanctorum Sri Subhadra is seen in the centre and flanking Her on either side are the Divine Idols of Sri Krishna and Sri Balarama. The main hall of this Temple could hold several hundreds of Devotees within it with ease. Apart from these three main Idols there are a few more smaller Idols and a few more portraits seen in the Sanctum Sanctorum. A huge coloured Portrait of Sri Narasimha Swamy performing the Hiranyakasibhu Vadham is seen atop the Sanctum Sanctorum. Similarly another wooden frame work is seen to the rear wall of the Moolasthanam. In this too, Sri Narasimha Swamy is seen performing the Hiranya Kasibhu Vadham. The Moolasthana Mandapam has a lively Idol which is South facing and this pertains to that of His Holiness A.C.Bakthi Vedantha Swamy Prabhupadha. This Idol looks as though it has life and seems to captivate the onlooking Devotees. A pair of Divine Feet is kept before His South facing Idol.
All places within the Temple are kept immaculately clean. This Temple in recent years has been the landmark of this area and hence the number of Devotees visiting here is gradually on the increase. A replica of the New Temple is kept in the Moolasthana Mandapam and ISKCON, Coimbatore invites donation in cash or kind from its ardent Devotees. The new Temple is coming up next to this Temple and is East facing too.The structure though is half completed looks massive and the intend to build it in a grand manner. A new Sudharshana Chakkaram has been installed on 15th August 2025 in the new building which is coming up in a big way.

The fountain which erupts and flows outside the Temple complex has a small Idol of Sri Krishna at the centre and this is a prime attraction for the kids and Devotees visiting here.
