The Govind Devji Temple is one of the holiest shrines in the area, nestled among the many other sanctuaries dedicated to the Lord. The original idol of Lord Krishna no longer exists in the temple, however it is said that the Lord Krishna idol in Govind Devji Temple resembled the Lord's visage when he was born.
For Hindu pilgrims, the majestic temple is a wonder because it allows them to see the purity of the site where the Lord was originally said to have dwelt and performed all of his miracles.
