About

History: Situated on the Nandisvara Hill, it was built by Roop Singh in the 19th century at the exact site believed to be the hilltop residence of Krishna's foster father, Nand Baba.

Pujas Performed: Mangala Aarti, Bhog Offering, and Shayan Aarti.

Benefits of Puja: Removes familial disputes, grants the joy of parenthood to childless couples, and brings protective energy to children.

Sevas: Palna Seva (swinging the deities) and Makhan Bhog.

Deities: Lord Krishna worshipped alongside his entire foster family (Nand Baba, Mother Yashoda, Balaram, and Rohini).

Fact: Because it represents a family home, it is the only major temple where the entire family of Krishna is worshipped together in a warm, domestic setting rather than a purely regal one.

Timings: 5:00 AM to 12:00 PM and 4:00 PM to 9:00 PM.

Darshan Booking:
No official online VIP booking; general entry is free.

Significance
