Yamuna river at dusk in Vrindavan

Yamuna is one of the major rivers of India having the total length of about 1370 km. The source of Yamuna is Yamunotri in the Uttaranchal Himalaya, which is north of Haridwar in the Himalayan Mountains. Yamuna River flows through the states of Delhi, Haryana and Uttar Pradesh and finally merges with river Ganges in Allahabad. A number of prominent cities such as Delhi, Mathura and Agra lie on the bank of river Yamuna.

Vrindavan is a town in the Mathura district of Uttar Pradesh, India. It is the site of an ancient forest which is the region where according to the Mahabharata, a grand Epic of Sanskrit literature dating back to the 3000BC, the deity Krishna spent his childhood days.

The town is about 10 km away from Mathura, the city of Lord Krishna's birthplace, near the Agra-Delhi highway. The town hosts hundreds of temples dedicated to the worship of Radha and Krishna and is considered sacred by a number of religious traditions such as Gaudiya Vaishnavism, Vaishnavism, and Hinduism in general.
