PLACES & TEMPLES TO VISIT IN NANDGAON
Nandgaon is located about 8.5 km to the north of Barsana. Nandgaon is located about 50 Kms on the north west of Mathura. This place is named after Krishna’s foster father Nand ji and mother Yashoda who had their permanent residence built at this place after moving from Gokul. During his kumara-Lilas (youth pastimes) Krishna lived in this village of Nandgaon along with his foster parents. It’s believed that after the disturbances created by the demons sent by Kansa to kill Krishna, Nand Raeji left Gokul and shifted to Nandgaon after staying for some time at Chhatikara, Dig and Kamyavan.
