Hotels in Mathura

 

Explore Mathura- the Land of Lord Krishna

 

Braj is the land of our own young Krishna, who spent his playful boyhood here and remarked later ““Udho, mohe Braj bisarat nahi” (Udho, I cannot forget Braj)” to his friend Udhav. Take this exciting and enriching journey to Mathura and come back with memorable memories and radhe radhe on your lips.

 

Some of the not to miss attractions here are Krishna Janmabhoomi Temple Complex, Bankey Bihari Temple, Nidhivan, Govardhan Parvat and Radha Kund among others. The prime attraction of this bustling town is the Krishna Janmabhoomi Temple Complex which is a architectural delight and is a sight to behold. The main element of the complex is Garbhagriha which is said to be the prison cell where Krishna was born, away from the eyes of Kansa, his cruel maternal uncle. The temple decks up during Krishna Janmashtami and Holi when thousands of devotees flock to this place to be a part of the grand festivities. Another must visit is Bankey Bihari Temple in Vrindavan, which is one of the oldest temples in the city and here the idol of Lord Krishna is in his childhood avtar. The unique thing about the temple is that there is no conches or bells and devotees only chant raadhe raadhe to please the lord. 

 

Even though the city is not a typical shopping destination, it has its share of markets from where you can buy Krishna and Radha idols, silver jewellery, rudraksha necklaces and the local specialities- the famous peda from either Radhika Sweets or Brijwasi Sweet Shop. There are hardly any standalone restaurants in Mathura as most of the hotels have in-house dining options which are also open for walk-in guests. You can enjoy local delicacies at the roadside eateries and satiate your cravings.
