Shrinathji Temple

Nathdwara

The Shrinathji Temple in Nathdwara, Rajasthan, stands as one of India’s most revered Krishna temples and the principal seat of Pushtimarg devotion. Dedicated to Shrinathji, the child form of Lord Krishna lifting Govardhan Hill, the temple is lovingly known as the “Haveli of Shrinathji,” reflecting the tradition of serving the deity not as an idol, but as a living divine child. Its history is traced to 1672, when the sacred image of Shrinathji was broughtfrom Govardhan to Mewar for protection and came to rest at Nathdwara, which devotees believe became the Lord’s chosen home. The temple is especially unique for its eight daily darshans rich seva tradition, pichwai art, elaborate food offerings, seasonal decorations, and deep connection with Vallabhacharya’s Pushtimarg. Major festivals such as Janmashtami,Annakut/Govardhan Puja, Holi, Diwali, Sharad Purnima, and various manorath celebrations draw large numbers of Vaishnav devotees, making Nathdwara not only a major Krishna pilgrimage centre, but also a living hub of devotion, art, music, food, and sacred heritage.
