Govardhan Hill

Govardhan Hill is one of the most scenic places to visit near Vrindavan. It’s associated with the legend that Lord Krishna lifted this huge hill on just one finger when he was still a child. He did so to protect his village people from the wrath of Lord Indra.

Although Govardhan Hill isn’t situated in Vrindavan town, it’s thronged by visitors around the year. Post-Diwali, many devotees visit Govardhan Hill to celebrate Govardhan Puja.

The hill isn’t only associated with Krishna, instead it’s believed to be a part of Krishna. It’s sacred, and many devotees show their devotion by circumambulating the hill.
