This spiritual sanctuary located on a serene hilltop was dedicated by Paramahansa Yoganand in 1950 and dreamed up as a “church of all religions.” The lake shrine is a great place to come to take in a view and center your soul, and even bring your aspiring mini-guru for Sunday meditation lessons. Roxana Lissa thinks of it as a beautiful spot to spend time for reflection by herself, or as an adventure with her family; “I come here to walk and just relax. As a family, we love going there on the weekends or on holidays to feed the ducks,” she says.
