Banke Bihari Temple

Banke Bihari Temple is the most beloved and emotionally charged Krishna temple in Vrindavan — a 19th-century haveli-style shrine where the enchanting Banke Bihari (Lord Krishna in a tribhanga pose) is revealed behind a swaying curtain, with the curtain closing every few seconds to prevent devotees from fainting with divine bliss (prema). The most visited temple in Vrindavan, it reaches a fever pitch of devotion during Holi, Janmashtami, and Radha Ashtami festivals.
