Sri Rangnath Ji Mandir

This historical temple is very special because the main entrance gate is built as per the Rajasthani architecture and the main temple was built in South Indian Architecture which is very unique. It also has a Mirror Palace and a Gold Pillar which looks mesmerizing. The detailing in the wall and pillars were a whole story to look.

This mandir has a touch of Rajasthan & south india
The structure is intricately designed
It has a South Indian touch in it
Monkeys can cause a huge trouble if you're not careful with your mobile phones and spectacles
The mandir area is vast and the mandir is very beautiful

Only South Indian style build temple in Virndavan. Construction started in 1845 and finished in 1851. Beautiful temple, very well made, we visited on a week day at 1600 h, crowd was less. Better to take e rickshaw, it will drop you right at the gate, it will take 45 minutes to see the full temple. Advised to take a guide, they are locally available at temple, charges vary as per season & crowd, but it's worth it. See it peacefully, admire the beauty of Garud sathambh. It is made of silver, covered with gold weighing 100s of kgs. Be careful of monkeys, do not carry anything in hand, no mobile, no 🕶. Worth a visit.

I recently had the opportunity to visit the Sri Rangnath Ji Mandir in Vrindavan, and I was absolutely captivated by its beauty and serenity. The temple is dedicated to Lord Vishnu, and it is one of the most important Vaishnava temples in the world.

Here are some of the things I loved about the temple:

The architecture: The temple is built in the Dravidian style of architecture, and it is truly a sight to behold. The intricate carvings on the walls and pillars are simply stunning.

The atmosphere: The temple has a very peaceful and calming atmosphere. The chanting of hymns and the sound of bells create a truly spiritual experience.

The darshan: The darshan of Lord Vishnu is a highlight of any visit to the temple. The deity is beautifully adorned with flowers and jewels, and it is a sight that will stay with you long after you leave.

The best time to visit the temple is early in the morning or late in the evening. This is when the temple is less crowded and you can have a more peaceful experience.

Very beautiful mandir, very peaceful & tranquil! Loved visiting here! Must visit when in Vrindavan. Also, buy your souvenirs from here because they're cheaper in comparison to anywhere else in Vrindavan.

Tip: don't go here wearing glasses because monkeys snatch them away & they might chew or break your glasses. If they take it away then offer them a small frooti and they'll return your glasses right away! This applies to everywhere in Vrindavan, not just Sri Rangnath Ji temple!

Sri Rangaji Temple is dedicated to Lord Sri Godarangmannar. Goda or Andal, as she is popularly known in South India, was a famous Vaishnava saint and Alvar of the 8th century, who composed "Tiruppuvai", an ode to her love for her beloved Lord Krishna and his Leela Bhoomi Vrindavan. Is focused on. She longs for him, fasts for him, sings songs in his praise and wishes to attain him by marrying him. Lord Ranganatha, who is none other than Krishna, answers their prayers by becoming their groom. In the Sriranganath temple, Lord Krishna is present in the form of a groom with his stick.
hand as is the custom in a traditional south Indian marriage. To his right is Andal and to his left Garuda, the vahana of Lord Krishna. Andal had expressed three wishes in her "NachiyarTirumozhi"(143 verses composed in praise of Lord Krishna). Her first wish was to spend her life at the feet of Lord Krishna in Vrindavan. Her second wish was that Lord Krishna must accept her as his bride fulfilled by Lord Ranganatha. The third wish that the Lord be offered "Ksheeranna"(dessert made of rice and milk) in a hundred pots was fulfilled by the eleventh century vaishnava saint Sri Ramanujacharya. Her first wish was fulfilled by Sri Rangadesik Swamiji by constructing this temple where Sri Goda-Rangamannar reside as divya dampathi (divine couple). Once when Sri Rangadesik Swamiji was explaining about the greatness of the South Indian temples to his disciples, then the brothers Seth Sri Radhakrishnaji and Sri Govind Dasji of Mathura expressed their wish for establishing Sri GodaRangamannar at Vrindavan. Swamiji had always thought about this unfulfilled wish of Andal. Taking the wish of brothers as divine indication, Swamiji immediately went to Sri Rangam and expressed this desire to the divine couple Sri GodaRangamannar and sought their permission for starting the construction of the temple. Skilled labourers were hired from Sri Rangam and brought to Vrindavan and the construction work for the temple commenced in the yeat 1845. The brothers contributed whole heartedly and with their effort and Sri Goda Rangamanaar's grace the temple was completed in the year 1851 A.D. The total expenditure incurred was Rs 45 Lacs. Thus manifested the magnificient GodaRangamannar Mandir in Vrindavan.

The structure of the Mandir is based on the famous Sri Ranganatha Swami temple of SriRangam. Keeping in mind the local craftsmanship; changes in the architecture were done though. Sri Ranganath Mandir is a rare and exquisite admixture of south and north Indian temple architecture. It is built in the traditional south Indian style with five concentric rectangular enclosures around the sanctum sanctorum and two beautiful stone gates carved in Jaipur style on the eastern and the western side.

On the western side of the temple just outside the gate is present a 50 feet high wooden chariot which is taken out only once in a year during Brahmotsav.

Once you enter through the stone carved western gate you see a huge seven storeyed gopuram.

To its left and right are electrically operated leelas depicting the stories of Lord Rama and Lord Krishna.

On the eastern side is another gopuram which is five storeyed. Between the two gopurams in the outer concentric enclosure there is a big pond known as the "Pushkarni".

Symmetrical in position to the pond on the other side is a small garden where Andal is taken out on every Friday evening. The garden has beautiful stone fountains which operate on special occasions.

In between the garden and the pond straight in front of the eastern gopuram is "barahdwari" and a small temple of Sri Hanumanji.

One of nice temple in Mathura with south india architecture. It has three small exhibitions also. Please avoid on weekend as there will rush like anything and be ready to walk. Howerver, vigrah is very nice and you will feel peace here.

Holy temple of Sri Ramgnath/Rangji . This temple reflects the holy and charming unique artitechture of South India temples. There you'll find one golden pillar (there was 2 once time but some pious danderhead people stole one of them from us in the past) and so many balls and monuments and in the seeshmehal you'll find the Statue of Hail lord Turupathi balaji and statues of other Hindu gods including our Beloving God couple(Radha and Govinda). The Jhankis are situated inside another room of temple. The whole vibes are just inspired by South side's temples. The price of the ticket is just ₹50 for all three museums.
