Indians believe that in the cellar of Sree Padmanabhaswamy temple there is a treasure containing many gold and jewelry.
When he first came to India, Jim Dobson, a tourist living in California, USA, was very eager to visit Thiruvananthapuram, the capital of Kerala state. It is famous for its sacred temple Sree Padmanabhaswamy.
This temple is inlaid with nearly 680 kg of gold. However, that is only the tip of the iceberg. Deep underground of the building are 6 secret tunnels. The largest, most rumored and most interesting vault is Vault B, which has yet to be opened by the Indian government. People believe that the inside of the vault contains gold and jewelry worth 1 trillion USD, according to Forbes.

There are many rumors that make this treasure even more mysterious. One of them is the legend of fierce mascots guarding this place day and night, so anyone who tries to break in will face dire consequences. However, in reality, Vault B has been opened at least seven times since 1990, and according to officials in the region, nothing terrible has happened.
In addition to Vault B, five other treasures at the temple were approved by the Supreme Court to be unsealed in 2011. Those places contain a lot of wealth, jewelry, coins, and gold. The total value of the treasure is up to 22 billion USD.
According to India Times, in 2016, a general audit was carried out to enumerate the temple’s assets. Accordingly, a huge amount of gold from the warehouse has mysteriously disappeared, estimated at 769 gold pots and silver bars. Many people believe that behind the treasure there are secret passages and for many years thieves have broken in to steal the treasure.

People also heard about another secret room besides Vault B. It is said to have thick walls made of solid gold. And that is where mankind’s greatest undiscovered treasure lies. However, this has yet to be confirmed by the Supreme Court.
Sree Padmanabhaswamy Temple is dedicated to the Hindu god Vishnu. This work once belonged to the lord Padmanabhaswamy. Currently, the Indian government has taken over the temple.

Padmanabhaswamy Temple is located in Thiruvananthapuram, Kerala, India. This place was built with high walls and a tower. Those wishing to visit the temple must have faith in the Hindu religion and adherents must strictly adhere to the dress code.
This is one of 108 shrines to worship Vishnu – one of the three supreme gods of Hinduism. In the ancient Tamil text, the temple dates back to the 6th century and was restored in the 16th century.
This is also one of the most popular tourist attractions in India. People can visit the temple, next to the bodyguards who closely guard the temple’s property.
Visitors can rent a tour to go around the city for 30 USD per person.
