a giant giriraja worshipped as Jagannatha!! @ Radha kund, down this little alley in a little temple
At the sangam the large number of Govardhana silas create mini-mountain of Giriraja.
It was here, next to white house, where Srila Bhaktisiddhanta Sarasvati
told the young Abhay Charan De (later Srila A.C. Bhaktivedanta Swami Prabhupada):
“If you ever get money, print books.”

Kushum Sarovar is a devotional monument built around a beautiful pond
(sarovar) with breathtaking 350-year-old historic structures.
Surrounded by groves of kadamba trees, it is a short distance from
other significant pilgrimage sites. It lies on the sacred circular path
(parikrama) of Govardhan.
