Shri Radha Vallabh Temple, also called Shri Radha Vallabhlal ji Temple is a historic temple in the city of Vrindavan, Mathura district, Uttar Pradesh, India. The temple is dedicated to Hindu deities Radha Krishna. The main deity of the temple is Krishna who is worshiped under the name of Shri Radha Vallabh which means the consort of Radha. Alongside Krishna, a crown is placed which signifies the presence of goddess Radha. Old Radhavallabh Temple, which is presently known as Hith Mandir in Vrindavan was constructed in 1585 A.D by Sundardas Bhatnagar, a disciple of Shri Vanachandra, son of Hith Harivansh Mahaprabhu. At that time, Sundardas Bhatnagar of Deoband was under the employment of Abdul Rahim Khankhana, the chief head at Akbar's court. Through Abdul Rahim Khankhana, Sundardas Bhatnagar not only got the Royal permission to use Red sandstone for the construction of temple, which was used only for construction of imperial buildings, royal palaces and forts at that time but also got monetary grant for this temple from Akbar. Descendants of Sundardas Bhatnagar at Deoband still have the temple documents with them. It is said that King Maan Singh first decided to construct this temple. But on hearing a legend that whosoever construct this temple would die within a year, he backed out. Though later the legend did come true. Sundardas Bhatnagar who constructed the temple died within a year, soon after the construction of the temple was complete.

Radha Vallabh Temple in Vrindavan is one of the most spiritually uplifting and soul-soothing places I’ve ever visited. Located in the heart of the holy town, this temple is not only historically significant but also deeply rooted in divine devotion, especially towards Shri Radha Rani and Lord Krishna. Unlike many other temples where Lord Krishna is the central deity, here Radha Rani is the main focus, and the idol of Lord Krishna is represented symbolically. This unique concept makes the temple incredibly special for true devotees of Radha-Krishna bhakti. The architecture of the temple is mesmerizing—built in red sandstone, it stands as a testimony to the devotion of the early Bhakti movement. The aura inside the temple is peaceful and filled with bhajans, chants, and the fragrance of incense, instantly transporting you to a different realm. The temple priests and sevaks are respectful and help you understand the history and traditions if you ask politely. I visited during the evening aarti, and the atmosphere was magical. Devotees singing, bells ringing—it felt divine. Cleanliness is well maintained, and the surrounding area has a spiritual charm with shops selling prasad and souvenirs. Highly recommended for anyone visiting Vrindavan. It’s not just a temple—it’s a divine experience. Haribol!

Radhavallabh temple is the oldest Vrindavan temple, which has among the oldest lord Krishna dieties on the earth. This dieties have descended to the earth from Mount Kailash, the abode of lord Shiva, as a special gift to the devottees. Hita Hariwansh, who discivered and established Vrindavan brought the idol from Himalayas to its current location in Vrindavan. The temple has two parts. One older part is non functional due to a lot of structural damages and probably some enchroachments. A relatuvely newer part (in fact both these are preserved as a herriage building by Survey of India) has the currently fucntional unit that includes temple, kitchen and gallaries. Among many festivals in this temple, most marked and must visit occassions are Holi, khichadi utsav during late winter, Vyahula (which happens on Akshay dwitiya and other times in the year), fool bangala in summer, nauka vihar before monsoon and the zhula in the early monsoon. In addition, you can enjoy 8 darshans a day whole year with first Darshan of the morning having ear pleasing classical music being sung live.
