Hinduism in Tijuana
In Tijuana, Hinduism is practiced in a diverse and diffuse manner among the population. It is found among established Indo-Hindus as well as local believers who, through a process of spiritual seeking, identify themselves as followers of Hindu traditions.

A portion of the Indo-Hindu community in Tijuana practices their religion by crossing the border into the United States, particularly to San Diego, California, where they can access religious products imported from their home country and visit Hindu temples. Those without visas to cross the border conduct their practices at home, using small altars. This adaptation in their mobility contexts and within a minority community allows them to adjust rituals to their new environment, while also reshaping gender roles, customs, and their connections with their countries of origin and residence. This situation contrasts with other religions in the region, as Hinduism in Tijuana is not predominantly practiced in congregational settings.
