Gokul is located at a distance of 12 Kms from Mathura. If is a quiet town believed to be the place where Lord Krishna was brought up by his foster mother Yashodha. Important places to visit here are Raman Reti and Gokulnath temple.
Govardhan is a popular pilgrimage place for Hindus and is located on a sandstone hill called Giriraj. Hindu mythology believes that young Lord Krishna held this hill for 7 days and nights on the tip of his finger to protect the people of Braj from wrath of heavy rain brought on by Lord Indra.
Mathura and Vrindavan are the most popular and important places of pilgrimages for devotes of Lord Krishna. Krishna was born in Mathura (place now called Krishna janamabhumi) and he spent his childhood in Vrindavan. The whole area has nearly 5000 temples devotes to Krishna. Immediately after birth his father, after crossing raging river Yamuna, brought him to the house of Nanda in Gokul. He did this to save him from his murderous uncle Kansa.
To see the maximum number of temples at all places, we suggest that the travellers plan their arrival into Delhi in the morning and leave from Delhi by the evening.
