Janmashtami 2023: What makes the celebrations of Lord Krishna's birth in Mathura and Vrindavan so special? Find out
Hindustan TimesJanmashtami 2023: The auspicious festival of Janmashtami, also known as Krishna Janmashtami, Gokulashtami, Shrikrishna Jayanti, and Krishnasthami, is celebrated nationwide to commemorate the birth of Lord Krishna. Krishna Janmashtami, the joyous festival commemorating the birth of Lord Krishna, takes on an unparalleled grandeur in the sacred cities of Mathura and Vrindavan. Devotees flock to the Krishna temples on the eve of Janmashtami, especially the Banke Bihari Temple in Vrindavan and the Krishna Janmabhoomi Temple in Mathura, where he is believed to have been born. The Dahi Handi event, which takes inspiration from Krishna's childhood mischief of stealing butter from earthen pots placed high by his mother Yashoda, is another highlight of the Janmashtami celebrations in Mathura and Vrindavan.
