History of BTCC

Our Journey

The Bharatiya Temple and Cultural Center is a non-profit organization which relies on the generosity of people like you. We are located at 3050 N. Cleveland Rd. in Lexington, KY. We have 10.2 acres of land that was donated by 20 families who bought it for us in 1996. We have a building of 10,000 sq. ft. with 8400 sq. ft. on the main floor and in 2012 our Temple area has been expanded 1600 to 2600 sq. ft. of temple area on the second floor. An Elevator has also been installed for our elderly and people with disability.
