Where myth meets reality

Located at the foothills of Nahargarh, Kanak Vrindavan is a testament to Maharaja Sawai Jai Singh’s vision. This verdant garden, approximately 275 years old, was conceptualised as a serene retreat for the Maharani and the Maharaja. Its name draws inspiration from the mystical Vrindavan, where Lord Krishna danced with the Gopis during the Maha Raas Leela. The Maharaja, in his wisdom, consecrated an idol of Sri Krishna in the temple within Kanak Vrindavan, known as the Shri Govind Deoji Parisar.

Designed to delight

The garden’s architecture seamlessly blends Mughal and Rajput styles. As you wander through its eight sections, you’ll encounter intricate marble fountains, ‘chhatris,’ and mirrors adorning the walls of the Govind Deoji temple. The main fountain, ‘Parikrama,’ carved from a single marble slab, captivates visitors. Inside the temple complex, delicate ‘panni’ work embellishes the Garbha Griha.

A sacred confluence

Kanak Vrindavan is more than just a garden; it’s a spiritual haven. Legend has it that the Maharaja planned an Ashvamedha Yagna here, collecting waters from sacred rivers. The temple dedicated to Lord Krishna, Govind Deoji, stands as a testament to this sacred spot. The water within is considered holy, and the temple resonates with devotion.
