Vrindavan, located in Uttar Pradesh, is one of the most revered pilgrimage destinations for Hindus, especially devotees of Lord Krishna. Situated on the banks of the Yamuna River, it is believed to be the place where Krishna spent his childhood and performed many divine “leelas” (miracles and pastimes).
Banke Bihari Temple: The most famous temple in Vrindavan, where Lord Krishna is worshipped in the form of Banke Bihari (a form where he leans in a charming pose).
Prem Mandir: A relatively new but grand temple made of white marble, known for its intricate carvings, light shows, and peaceful gardens.

Radha Raman Temple: A historic temple where the deity of Krishna appeared on its own from a shaligram stone.

Yamuna Ghats: Scenic and spiritual spots along the Yamuna for boat rides, evening aarti, and meditation.
Rangaji Temple: A South Indian–style temple dedicated to Lord Ranganatha (Vishnu), known for its tall gopuram and large water tank.
