A recent trip to Moundsville, WV brought a spectacular surprise: The Palace of Gold lies about 20 miles outside of the town, along a winding road along a rural road. There, ensconced behind the privacy of the Palace walls, was the most spectacular rose garden I have ever seen. The perfume of the roses wafted on the breeze, alerting us the the beauty that awaited...it was absolutely breathtaking, the colors, the scent...it was quite heavenly!
We were given a tour by a saffron robed monk and were allowed to take some photographs of the beautiful stained glass windows. After the tour we were invited to the New Vrindaban's RVC Temple to enjoy a free lunch and to see the temple's ceiling, which has the largest stained glass ceiling in the USA, all created by devotees of the guru.
