Vrindavan (15 km) Closely linked to Lord Krishna's youth and to stories of his playful pranks, Vrindavan is as important a place of pilgrims as Mathura. Today it is a temple town with ghats along the river and numerous shrines. The most important are : The imposing Govind Deo Temple built at an enormous cost off one crore rupees by Raja Man Singh of Jaipur in 1590 AD. Constructed in red sandstone in the shape of a Greek cross, it was once a magnificent seven storeyed structure.
