Giriraj Parikrama · Radha Kund · Radha Rani Temple Barsana · Nandgaon
Giriraj Govardhan & Radha Rani Barsana
The Govardhan Barsana Tour is one of the most spiritually powerful and visually stunning journeys in all of Braj Dham. Govardhan Parvat — the sacred hill lifted by Lord Krishna on His little finger — and Barsana — the divine birthplace of Shrimati Radha Rani — are two of the most revered places in the entire world of Vaishnavism.
Govardhan Parikrama is a 21 km circumambulation of the sacred Govardhan hill. Devotees walk — or take a vehicle — around the hill, stopping at Radha Kund, Shyam Kund, Kusum Sarovar, Manasi Ganga and the divine Mukharvind Temple. Every inch of Govardhan is considered the living body of Lord Krishna Himself.
Barsana, perched atop a picturesque hill, is the beloved village of Shrimati Radha Rani. The majestic Radha Rani Temple (Shri Ji Mandir) atop Barsana Hill with its intricate pink sandstone carvings is one of the most beautiful temples in all of Braj. Nearby Nandgaon — the village of Krishna’s father Nanda Baba — is the perfect complement to this divine day tour.
Our expert guides narrate the divine leelas of Govardhan and Radha-Krishna at every step — making this not just a sightseeing tour but a profound spiritual experience that will stay with you forever.
Sacred Spots of Govardhan & Barsana
Most SacredGovardhan Parvat
The sacred hill lifted by Lord Krishna on His little finger for 7 days to shelter Braj from Indra’s devastating rains. The entire hill is worshipped as the living form of Lord Krishna — Giriraj ji.
Most Holy KundRadha Kund & Shyam Kund
Considered the holiest body of water in all of Braj — even holier than the Yamuna. A holy dip in Radha Kund, especially on Kartik Ashtami, is believed to grant immense spiritual merit.
Parikrama RouteKusum Sarovar
A stunning step-well on the Govardhan Parikrama route with beautifully carved red sandstone architecture. Radha Rani used to pick flowers (kusum) here for Krishna’s garlands — the most photographed spot on the parikrama.
Holy KundManasi Ganga
The sacred lake at the centre of Govardhan town — said to be created by Krishna’s mind (manas). A Govardhan Parikrama is considered incomplete without parikrama of Manasi Ganga. Beautiful ghats and temples surround it.
Radha RaniRadha Rani Temple, Barsana
The magnificent Shri Ji Mandir atop Barsana Hill — birthplace of Shrimati Radha Rani. Built in stunning pink Rajasthani sandstone, this is one of the most breathtaking temples in all of Braj Dham.
NandgaonNanda Baba Temple, Nandgaon
The divine village of Krishna’s foster father Nanda Baba, atop the sacred Nandishwar Parvat. The Nanda Baba temple here is always included in the Govardhan Barsana day tour.
Main TempleMukharvind Mandir
The main temple of Govardhan where the divine face (mukh) of Giriraj ji is worshipped. The deity here is believed to be the actual face of Lord Govardhan — one of the most spiritually powerful darshans in Braj.
Leela SthalDaan Ghati Mandir
The spot on the Govardhan Parikrama where Krishna would playfully stop the gopis carrying milk and ask for a toll (daan) — one of the most celebrated leelas of Braj. The temple here is full of divine energy.
