Rādhā-Kṛṣṇa & Sītā-Rām of the Prem Mandir
The Prem Mandir (2012) — a marble temple complex built by Jagadguru Kripalu Mahārāj — covers 54 acres at the edge of Vrindavan. Walking through the park, visitors encounter 84 sculptural tableaux of Krishna-līlā (with animated fountains and illumination) in one section, and of Rāma-līlā in another. One of the most-visited modern pilgrimage sites. Despite its 21st-century origin, the theological content is thoroughly traditional Bhāgavata-Purāṇa narrative.

Every tradition in India — textual, oral, tribal, regional, syncretic — deserves first-person recognition. This entry honours Hindu on its own terms.
