Mathura

Mathura is the birthplace of the world's popular deity, Lord Krishna.

With a history that traces itself to the beginnings of world trade, Mathura is one of the most ancient cities of India.

It is situated on the banks of the Yamuna, in Uttar Pradesh, and is one of the most important pilgrimage centers in India.

Mathura is famous for the Krishnajanmabhumi Mandir, Vishram Ghat and Sati Burj.

It is believed that Lord Krishna rested at Vishram Ghat after killing the tyrant Kamsa.

Evenings at the Vishram Ghat are generally a very beautiful sight with hundreds of diyas floating on the river. The Ghats offer very picturesque sights with long flight of stairs leading to the river's edge. You can find many pilgrims bathing in the river and from a distance you can see the temple spires silhouetted against the sky.
