This great Vaishnavite shrine was built in the 17th century on spot exactly identified by the Lord himself. The legends have it that the idol of the Lord Krishna was being transferred to safer place from Vrindaban to protect it from the destructive wrath of the Mughal Emperor Aurangzeb. When the idol reached this spot, the wheels of bullock cart it was traveling in, sank axle deep in mud and refused to move further, at all. The accompanying priest realized that this was Lord's chosen spot and the Lord did not want to travel any further. Accordingly a Temple was built here. This is a temple and place of pilgrimage amongst its believers. « less

I wanted to visit Nathdwara when I landed in Udaipur and was advised to reserve it till my trip back to Jaipur. By the time I had finished my Udaipur trip, I was tired. I also found the reviews of Nathdwara were not too good and decided to skip it. Then I had the most interesting experience. On the day... More

Mad rush even on a weekday. People selling 'prasad' already offered to God. Not a good place to pray in peace!

the darshan was pretty good. but everything else was highly a money making business - right from darshan to prasad. DON'T pay more than INR 100 (or 101 sometimes). refuse take the darshan through those who demand 300 or 500. if you have an old mother or a small kid - less than 10 years, to avoid the rush and...

The temple is not well kept and appears like a money making racket by the priests. They charge around Rs. 300-500 for the darshan which is also more a push push affair in the crowd. For the prasad also they charge Rs 100 per piece. You visit the flower chamber they want you to donate. Its not an organised place.
