Banke Bihari temple

The stunning Banke Bihari Tempe is dedicated to Lord Krishna, and is one of the top visited temple in Vrindavan. The locals believe that Lord Krishna is bent in three places, from which the temple also gets its name. Banke Bihari means The Bent Enjoyer.

The original temple is extremely ancient, but the one that you will get to visit was made in the 19th Century. The temple also opens its gate later than other temples. Prayers at this temple start at 9 am, whereas in every other temple it starts latest by 5 am.

Banke Bihari Temple is one of the most important temples in Vrindavan. It is also one of the seven temples of the Thakur of Vrindavan.

Prem Mandir

Prem Mandir, meaning "Temple of Love," is one of Vrindavan’s most captivating landmarks, constructed entirely of pure white marble. Commissioned by Jagadguru Shri Kripalu Ji Maharaj, this stunning temple is dedicated to Radha-Krishna and Sita-Ram, embodying the spiritual essence of divine love. The intricate carvings on its walls beautifully depict Krishna's life—his playful pranks, the Ras Leela, and his eternal bond with Radha. Sprawling gardens and exquisite fountains surround the temple, enhancing its serene atmosphere.

What makes Prem Mandir truly special are its spectacular light shows each evening, where the temple is illuminated with vibrant colors, creating a mesmerizing sight for visitors. It’s not just a place of architectural beauty, but a deeply spiritual experience, offering peace and devotion to all who visit this symbol of divine love.

Nidhivan Temple

Dedicated to Lord Krishna, it is believed to be the place where Krishna and Radha perform the Ras Leela every night. The temple’s unique atmosphere is filled with dense trees, many of which are mysteriously hollow and intertwined. According to legend, no one stays in the temple grounds after sunset, as it is said that divine beings descend to perform sacred rituals. Devotees believe that those who stay overnight risk losing their sanity or life. The mysticism and strong spiritual vibrations make Nidhivan a fascinating pilgrimage spot for those seeking a connection with Lord Krishna’s pastimes and divine presence, drawing both devotees and curious travelers from all over the world.

Shri Krishna Balaram Mandir

The next temple on your Vrindavan itinerary should be the Shri Krishna Balaram Mandir. Said to be one of the most important ISKCON Temples in India, Shri Krishna Balaram Mandir is truly a sight to behold.

From the moment you step inside this elegant and regal temple, you will be mystified. It feels like you are entering into a royal palace rather than a temple. Such is the beauty of this temple. The entire structure is built by sparingly white marbles. There are large archways with winding peacock stairways on each side of the archways. It is like walking into a fairytale.

The temple is extremely significant when it comes to the life of Lord Krishna. It depicts the life of Lord Krishna and all the phases in his life.
