It will be built next to the Guru Nanak Darbar Gurudwara, in a locality which also has several churches.

The structure will be an extension of the current Hindu temple in Bur Dubai's Al Fahidi neighbourhood, and is expected to be ready in 2022.

The new temple is in addition to the BAPS Mandir coming up at the Abu Dhabi-Dubai border.
