    Best clean holy place of Shri Krishna
    Pious and best temple of Shri Krishna. Better to visit on your own, Guide not required. It has Karavas birthplace and a separate temple of Shri Krishna. It also has a small cave JHANKHI of Shri Krishna's life. In house Rabdi, dudh and peda are delicious. Visit the REAL Brijvasi Sweet shop to have Dodha Barfi, Mathura peda and Soan papadi. It's near to gate 1.

    This is the place where Lord Krishna was born on midnight of 8th day of Shravan. The actual birth place of Krishna is now converted into temple known as Garbh Griha. Temple remains closed in afternoon. No need to hire guide. Plenty of stairs to be climbed. Strictly no mobile phone or any bag with you is allowed inside ... security checking 2 times. Cloak room is available to deposit your mobile and belongings. Plenty of accommodation around and many options for eating. No parking facilities. Auto transportation easily available for vrindavan,gokul and local areas in abundance ( sharing also ).

    An important holy place of Hindu religion
    A very important place to visit while in Mathura , where Lord Krishna was born , it’s a huge campus . You have to deposit your mobile/ bags at lockers out side temple . Clean toilets are in campus and shoe lockers in the campus . Very easy to visit with large groups.

I’ve always wanted to connect more deeply with Krishna and I feel I did in this shrine.
Nov 2023 • Friends
To have experienced this shrine where Krishna was born was simply and utterly Divine. The actual energy in the shrine is immense and I truly received the impression that a Divine Being had been there, even if it was 5,000 years ago.

The temple is amazing
Sep 2023 • Solo
The temple is amazing. A place to leave your soul and disintegrate in Shri Krishna.
Must to know: Keep your belongings in your vehicle in the trunk. You can't carry a thing inside.

BE AWARE OF FRAUDSTERS !!!
May 2023 • Family
Went to Mathura with Family. Unfortunately fell victim to fraudsters as described by many of the tourists here. They follow the same script as mentioned in the reviews!!

Do checkout reviews of Gokul,Mathura and be aware of this scam.

DO NOT ENTERTAIN ANY "GUIDE" YOU COME ACROSS IN ANY OF THESE SACRED PLACES. THEY ARE LOOTING INNOCENT PEOPLE IN THE NAME OF GOD.

I wish I could have read through the reviews before visiting Mathura.

One can feel Shri Krishna's presence across the temple premises. Place is very crowded but its worth all the wait to have darshan.

Birthplace of Lord Krishna
Nov 2022
Janmabhoomi temple is the birthplace of Lord Krishna. One side of the temple has the place were Krishna ji was born, second has the deities. The entry to the temple and the darshan is very well organized. Every person must visit this place, once in their lifetime. Hare rama hare krishna, krishna krishna hare hare.

My soul is there. I am devotee of Lord Krishn and Radhe Maiya. I always feel like in heaven whenever I visit this temple. In October we visited here and it is beautiful. Lord Krishna blessed all.
