Govind Dev Temple is a famous mandir in Vrindavan known for its magnificent architecture. It’s a seven-storey temple built by Raja Man Singh in the 1600s. The temple structure is like a European cathedral, and it’s one of the most exquisite temples in the region.

It’s dedicated to Govind Dev (another name for Lord Krishna). But much of the temple was destroyed by Aurangzeb in 1670. And the original idol had been shifted to Jaipur for its safekeeping.

Only three storeys remain, which you can see today. Even though the temple doesn’t have its old magnificence, it attracts many tourists and devotees.
