Vrindavan is entrenched in Hindu tradition and lore, serving as a crucial site for Hindu pilgrimages. Notably, the Govinda Dev temple stands as one of its most ancient structures, erected in 1590, while the establishment of the town itself dates back to that same century. The spirit of Vrindavan has been rediscovered since the 16th century. Mathura holds the distinction of being the birthplace of Lord Krishna, situated in the heart of Braj or Brij-bhoomi, often referred to as Shri Krishna Janma-Bhoomi, which translates to ‘The Birthplace of Lord Krishna’. It ranks among the seven sacred cities (Sapta Puri) revered in Hinduism. The Keshav Dev Temple, a historic edifice, was constructed on the very grounds where Lord Krishna was born. Moreover, Mathura was historically the capital of the Surasena Kingdom, presided over by Kansa, Krishna’s maternal uncle.
