Mathura Vrindavan Tour Package

Mathura and Vrindavan are closely associated with the birth and childhood of Lord Krishna, the guide, philosopher, lover and supreme. Also known as Braj Bhumi, Mathura and Vrindavan are still alive with the Krishna legend. Mathura, a non-descript village on the bank of the Yamuna, was transformed into a place of light and pilgrimage after Krishna was born here. Vrindavan, some 15 km away from Mathura is the place where Krishna spent most of his childhood, serenading gopis and showing miracles one moment, and killing demons the next.

According to a saying, "One can count number of dust particles on the land, but not temples in Mathura." Every single home, small temple, building, shop, ghat, in short everything is considered holy in the city. Mathura is wrapped in timeless devotion to Lord Krishna, the lover of Radha, the cowherd-prince, the charioteer of Arjun and the most popular reincarnation of Lord Vishnu. Some of the most important places of interest here are Dwarkadhish Temple, Rangji Temple, Krishna Janmabhoomi, Radha Madanmohana Temple.
