ISKCON Temple, Vrindavan, Hindu temple in Vrindavan, India.
The Krishna Balaram Mandir is a Hindu temple in Vrindavan in India and consists of shrine rooms with white marble statues. The three central altars display depictions of Krishna with Balaram, Radha with Shyamsundar, and Gaura with Nityananda in carved architectural frames.
A. C. Bhaktivedanta Swami Prabhupada founded the temple in 1975 as the first ISKCON center in India. The construction marked the return of the international Hare Krishna movement to its spiritual homeland after years of growth in the West.
The site upholds Gaudiya Vaishnava traditions through daily worship services where visitors experience chanting and offerings. The community gathers regularly for kirtans in which Sanskrit mantras are repeated and a shared spiritual practice takes shape.
Guesthouses stand on the grounds or nearby and offer accommodation for longer stays. A vegetarian restaurant serves meals during the day and provides food for both pilgrims and visitors.
A white marble samadhi shrine stands near the entrance and honors founder Prabhupada. The memorial room draws followers who pay respects to the teacher and offer flowers or prayers.
