Dedicated to Lord Krishna and his scripture Gita, the holiest book of Hinduism, Gita Mandir is a quaint and beautifully decorated temple. Located away from the hustle and bustle of Mathura’s main centre, the temple is well-known for Gita Stambh, 18 marble pillars on which the whole of Gita’s verses have been carved. Constructed by the corporate giant Birlas, the temple has some beautiful carvings and paintings to its credit. Inside the temple are the beautiful idols of Lord Krishna, Lord Vishnu, Lord Rama, Goddess Sita and Goddess Lakshmi. The temple is elaborately decorated on the festive occasions like Holi and Janmashthmi. Tourists visiting the holy Mathur Town make it a point to offer prayers at the temple. A number of shops selling items of worship and sweets are located outside the temple.
