siddhivinayak temple

today morning i went to Siddhivinayak temple after couple of years. the whole outlook of temple has changed drastically in the past few years.

now there are walls, cops, metal detectors, snifer dogs all around... if you dont want to stand in loooong queues then you can get yourself silver or gold entry passes, or you can make a donation - which enables you a direct entry into temple... or if you are female, you can stand in the shorter ladies-only queue.

for the rest of us, well we can always stand in the general queue by which you get to enter the temple in 4 hours..

4 hours ?! isn't it the same amount of time we have to wait for visiting Balaji temple?
Its better these create standards or something like that..

well that's what i was wondering about standing in the line. if it takes 4 hours here in a city temple then it will surely take 4 days in thirupati temple

I have heard that on special occasions, the waiting times can go upto 12-15 hours. I can't stand that long. My couple of visits to the temple have been in the other shorter queue, which takes about 30-45 mins.
