Mathura Tour Package

Mathura Tour Package
A Sacred Journey to the Birthplace of Lord Krishna**

Some places are visited.
Some places are felt.
And then there are places like Mathura, where devotion breathes, divinity walks, and every grain of dust carries the echo of Lord Krishna’s leelas.

The Mathura Tour Package is not just a pilgrimage—it is a journey into eternal joy, divine love, and spiritual innocence. Mathura is the land where God chose to be born as a child, where wisdom danced with playfulness, and where devotion took the form of music, laughter, and unconditional love.

Located on the sacred banks of the Yamuna River, Mathura is one of the Sapta Puri (seven holiest cities of Hinduism) and the eternal birthplace of Lord Shri Krishna, the eighth incarnation of Lord Vishnu.

With spiritually curated Mathura Tour Packages, pilgrims and devotees experience the sacred essence of Krishna Janmabhoomi, ancient temples, timeless rituals, and the living traditions of Braj Bhoomi. Many travelers also combine this pilgrimage with Vrindavan, Govardhan, and Barsana to complete the divine Krishna circuit.

Plan your spiritual journey with Maharishi Tour & Travel Pvt. Ltd., where devotion meets comfort, rituals meet guidance, and every yatra becomes a soulful experience.

Why Mathura Holds a Unique Place in Sanatan Dharma

Mathura is spiritually unparalleled because it represents:

Divinity in human form
Bhakti through love, not fear
Spiritual liberation through joy
The balance of dharma and compassion

While many pilgrimages focus on penance and austerity, Mathura teaches that God can be reached through love, surrender, and celebration.

It is believed that:

“One who chants Krishna’s name in Mathura attains the same merit as intense penance elsewhere.”

The Mythological Glory of Mathura

Where the Divine Took Human Birth

According to sacred scriptures, Mathura was ruled by the tyrant King Kansa, whose reign was marked by cruelty and injustice. A divine prophecy foretold that Devaki’s eighth child would end his tyranny.

Despite being born in a prison cell, Lord Krishna’s arrival illuminated the universe. The chains fell, the prison doors opened, and Vasudeva carried the infant Krishna across the Yamuna to Gokul, guided by divine forces.

This moment marks the triumph of dharma over adharma, and Mathura became eternally sanctified.

Shri Krishna Janmabhoomi – The Heart of Mathura

At the very center of Mathura stands the Shri Krishna Janmabhoomi Temple, built over the sacred prison cell where Lord Krishna was born.
