Visrama Ghata
It is said that Lord Varaha, Vishnu in His boar incarnation, also rested here after killing Hiranyaksa. While resting here, Lord Varaha spoke the Adi Varaha Purana to Mother Earth and Vyasadeva recorded it. Every evening there is a sunset arati offered to the Yamuna River. Many people come for this arati. You can get a good view of this arati on a sunset boat ride. This ghata was reconstructed in 1814. Next to this ghata is the small Yamuna-Yamaraja Temple, where there are old deities of Yamuna Devi and her brother Yamaraja. These Deities are said to have been installed by Vajranabha, 4,900 years ago. This temple is located about 30m (100 ft) from the Yamuna, on the path that leads to the road that goes to the Dwarkadish temple. The sign on the wall of this temple says Sree Yamunaji Dharmaraja Temple. Dharmaraja is another name for Yamaraja. The Yama Dvitiya Festival is a popular festival celebrated at Vishram Ghata on the day after Govardhana Puja, on the second day of Karttika Shukla. It is said in the mahatmya text that after bathing in Vishram Ghat that one should then visit the Gatashram temple. In this temple is a Deity of Krishna along with images of Radha and Kubja. It is located at the entrance of Vishram Bazaar, across from the alley that leads to Vishram Ghat. It was built around 1800. Other temples at Vishram Ghata are the Krishna Balarama Temple, Vasudeva Devaki Temple and Annapurna Temple, the goddess of food. There is a good chance that the panda guides will approach you aggressively for a donation at this place. How To Get Here This place is located
in the middle (north-south) of Mathura, on the bank of the Yamuna.
Everyone knows where it is located. |
