"This place is also called Nikuñjavana. It lies just near the temple of Śrī Rādhā-Dāmodara, to the south-west. A painting of Śrīmatī Rādhikā with Śrī Kṛṣṇa massaging Her feet is worshipped here in a small temple. The Vrajavāsīs say that even today Śrī Rādhā-Kṛṣṇa Yugala perform Their pastimes here every night. Everyone therefore leaves this kuñja at dusk. Even the impudent monkeys independently leave this kuñja as the evening falls. From time to time it happens that someone stubbornly tries to remain here during the night, and in the morning is found dead. Others have by some means escaped death, but have become completely insane. Bhakta Rasakhāna searched for Kṛṣṇa all over Vraja but without success. Finally, he had darśana of rasika Śrī Kṛṣṇa at this very place. He has revealed this in his beautiful poetry as follows: dekhyo duryo vah kuñj kuṭīr meṁ baiṭhyo paloṭat rādhikā pāyan “Standing in the doorway of the kuñja, I watch Kṛṣṇa as He sits massaging Rādhikā’s feet submissively.” [The word paloṭa here indicates that Kṛṣṇa is massaging in the mood, “I will not go to Candrāvalī’s kuñja again.”] In Sevā-kuñja, we also find Lalitā-kuṇḍa. When Lalitā was feeling thirsty during rāsa, Kṛṣṇa manifested this beautiful kuṇḍa by digging it with His flute. Lalitā and the sakhīs drank the kuṇḍa’s sweet, cool water and refreshed themselves. There is a keli-kadamba tree nearby whose every knot bulges out and resembles a round śālagrāma." Excerpt from the book 'Sri Vraja-mandal Parikrama' by Srila Bhaktivedanta Narayana Gosvami Maharaja

Vrindavan place is heavily populated with monkeys and their unity would amaze you. If you tease a single monkey, then the entire gang of monkeys will come to his rescue. Don't consider monkeys as fun there and do not tease them by any means. you will sure be in trouble if you do So. Don't wear Glasses and don't carry any bottles and cool drinks. For sure Monkeys will trouble you. They are very crazy about Sun glasses and Specs. if they notice you wearing one, they would come and snatch them to wear themselves. No matter how weak your eyesight is, please avoid wearing specs. if you have to wear then be careful. Most of the Vrindavan temples and tourist spots will closes at 8 pm. so plan your trip after lunch or early morning. Avoid planning in the evening. Best time to plan is after lunch so that you can spend Half day here to cover all important temples and spots. Try to plan Prem Mandir at last to your visit as it is so beautiful in the lighting and be careful that you will reach there before 6 pm so that you will enjoy your Prem Mandir Visit.

A Divine Experience at Sewa Kunj, Vrindavan Sewa Kunj is one of the most spiritually charged and serene spots in Vrindavan. It is believed to be the place where Lord Krishna performed Raas Leela with Radha and the Gopis. The peaceful surroundings, with the beautiful garden and sacred vibes, make it a must-visit for devotees and spiritual seekers alike. The temple remains closed in the evening as it is said that Krishna and Radha still come here at night. The mystery and sanctity attached to the site add a deep spiritual charm. Peacocks and monkeys roam freely around the garden, adding to the natural beauty of the place. Deep spiritual atmosphere. Well-maintained and peaceful. Rich mythological significance. Entry is restricted at night (but this adds to the mystique). Can get crowded during festivals. Highly recommended for those looking to connect with the divine energy of Vrindavan. Visit with respect and devotion.
