Banke Bihari Temple

The temple features traditional Indian architecture with marble floors and columns, illustrating the tripartite structure common in northern Indian religious buildings.

Built in 1864 on the sacred grounds where spiritual leader Swami Haridas discovered the Krishna deity statue near Vishakha Kund in Nidhivan.

The temple follows the Sakhibhav tradition, where devotees worship Krishna through specific rituals and musical performances during religious ceremonies.

Temple doors open from 9:00 AM to 12:00 PM and 6:00 PM to 9:00 PM, with modified hours during festivals and special occasions.

The morning prayer ritual starts later than other temples because believers maintain that Krishna rests here after night celebrations in Vrindavan.
