• About Bhandirvan:
Bhandirvan, the pious land which united Radha-Krishna! Bhandirvan one of the 137 sacred forests in Mathura lies 10 km away from Vrindavan. It is the place where Radha and Krishna used to perform their youth plays and it is also believed that it was Lord Brahma who got them married at this very place.
Once Nand Baba with baby Krishna had come to see the cows from Gokul, due to bad weather, Shri Krishna started bothering him, so he came here and sat down under a tree, and when he got darshan of Shri Radha, he thought that a Braj Gopi has come, he gave baby Krishna to Her and said "leave him to home".
