Each stone of the temple has been hand carved by hundreds of the temple artisans, who have been working on this project since 2001. Next, head to Banke Bihari Temple, constructed in 1864 as a Hindu temple dedicated to Lord Krishna, it is amongst the most attractive, holiest and famous temples of Lord Krishna of Vrindavan in India.
