f. Radha Krishan Ji Temple chaugan chowk:-
Radha krishan ji Temple is originally believed to be established by King Vajranabh (great-grandson of Krishna) around 5000
years ago. The temple is said to be in ruins; the icons were rediscovered by Narayan Bhatt (a disciple of Chaitanya Mahaprabhu)
and a temple was built in 1675 AD by Raja Bir Singh Deo. Later, the present structure of temple was built by Narayan Bhatt
with the help of Raja Todarmal, one of the governors in the Akbar’s court.
Shreeji Temple, with its arches, pillars and red sandstone, looks like a structure dating back to the Mughal era. This popular
temple in Barsana is a classic example of the Rajput architectur prevailing during that time. The temple looks like a magnificent
palace which is made up of red sandstone and adorned with intricate hand carvings, beautiful arches, domes and exquisite
paintings on its inner walls and ceilings. Red and white stones have been used for the construction of the temple, which are
considered to symbolize the love of Radha and Krishna. Revitalisation of Radha Krishan Ji Temple showing below with the
