The International Society for Krishna Consciousness , also known as the Hare Krishnas, is based at the Krishna Balaram temple complex (Ishkon Temple), accessed through a beautiful white-marble gate, which houses the tomb of Swami Prabhupada (1896–1977), the founder of the Hare Krishna organisation. Several hundred foreigners attend courses and seminars here annually. The temple is closed to the public at various times of the day, most significantly from 12:45pm to 4pm (4:30pm in summer).
