Hinduism is a minority faith in Colombia represented mainly by the Hare Krishna devotees and Indian and Nepalese expats. The ISKCON has temples in 20 cities in the country.[1] The community consists of about 700 members.[2] There are also many hotels and restaurants in the country named after the Hindu deities as a tribute to Colombian–Indian relations.[3]
