Worth its long tradition and fame. Beware of the long queue and crowd. Don't pay anything to the priests, who would want to pay for anything and everything. Overall temple is very good, although you will not be able to spend any time inside the main temple. But try to grab as much memories as possible

Beautiful and peaceful Lord Krishna's worship place to visit with your family. I travelled by car here with my family and got my car parked in the municipal parking by paying Rs. 60 overnight, since the place where I stayed was not having the parking due to closeness to the temple. What I like: People and places are good. You will get good stay & good food even without the booking but obviously not in the peak season. What I didn't like: Overall experience was good but there were some lags in the Temple Management for the prasad and donations. But on a positive note small things can be ignored when you are in a place of Lord Krishna. The location of temple is near the beach, so do not miss on adventure with your family. Closing note: Must visit place in winter, I would suggest spare some 2-3 days time and explore nearest Blue beaches as well. Thanks for reading.

Definition of our culture and majesty. Such detailed architecture and gardens well maintained. The laser show was stunning 😍 With a view of the serene ocean and the awe instilling temple one can forget oneself and truly attain inner peace.

Nice & clean temple...people are very friendly & u can opt any guide to know the temple & it's history better. Foods also available there for only 30rs. Gomoti ghat also near by. Best time to visit in winter...summer is very hot here.

Wonderful experience of my life...I think I feel blessed to visit dwarka. The air is full with divine energy. So much energy and peace. The temple is decorated beautiful in diwali. I would happy to visit the place again with family. I feel blessed after the prayer to lord Krishna. Everyone should once visit in the life.

It was divine experience visiting Dwarkadhish temple. Morning time is best during summers, one needs 2-3 hours to visit all shrines around main temple. Visiting river and beach will complete the yatra. May lord dwarkadhish bless all !!

Visited Shree Dwarikadhish Temple. Beautiful place to visit. One can have good darshan at early morning 7/7:30 AM or late night by 9PM. You can also visit the sea shore and explore other small temples near the area.

The Dwarkadhish temple, also known as the Jagat Mandir and occasionally spelled Dwarakadheesh, is a Hindu temple dedicated to the god Krishna, who is worshiped here by the name Dwarkadhish, or 'King of Dwarka'. The temple is located at Dwarka city of Gujarat, India, which is one of the destinations of Char Dham, a Hindu pilgrimage circuit. The main shrine of the five-storied building, supported by 72 pillars, is known as Jagat Mandir or Nija Mandir. Archaeological findings suggest it to be 2,000 - 2,200 years old. The temple was enlarged in the 15th- 16th century. The Dwarkadhish Temple is a Pushtimarg temple, hence it follows the guidelines and rituals created by Vallabhacharya and Vitheleshnath. According to tradition, the original temple was believed to have been built by Krishna's grandson, Vajranabha, over the hari-griha (Krishna's residential place). The original structure was destroyed by Mahmud Begada in 1472, and subsequently rebuilt in the 15th-16th century.[citation needed] The temple became part of the Char Dham pilgrimage considered sacred by Hindus in India. Adi Shankaracharya, the 5th century BCE Hindu theologian and philosopher, visited the shrine. The other three being comprising Rameswaram, Badrinath and Puri. Even today a memorial within the temple is dedicated to his visit. Dwarakadheesh is the 98th Divya Desam of Vishnu on the subcontinent, glorified in the Divya Prabandha sacred texts. it was rebuilt by Raja Jagat Singh Rathore. The temple is at an elevation of 12.19 metres (40.0 ft) above mean sea-level. It faces west. The temple layout consists of a garbhagriha (Nijamandira or Harigraha) and an antarala (an antechamber).[7] It is conjectured that this temple location is 2,500 years old where Krishna had built his city and a temple. However, the existing temple is dated to 16th century. The town of Dwarka in Gujarat has a history that dates back centuries, and mentioned in the Mahabharat epic as the Dwaraka Kingdom. Situated on the banks of river Gomti, the town is described in legend as the capital of Krishna. Evidence such as a stone block with script, the way the stones were dressed showing that dowels had been used, and an examination of anchors found on the site suggest that the harbour site dates only to historical times, with some of the underwater structure being late Medieval. Coastal erosion was probably the cause of the destruction of what was an ancient port. Hindus believe that the original temple was constructed by Vajranabh, the great grand son of Krishna, over the residential palace of Krishna. It was destroyed by Sultan Mahmud Begada in 1472. The current temple in Chaulukya style was constructed in 15-16th century. The temple covers area of 27-metre by 21-metre with east–west length of 29-metre and north–south width of 23 metres. The tallest peak of the temple is 51.8 m high.

Calmness, Spirituality. Can't express more in words. It's something that only you can experience once you visit here. Felt the presence of Krishna everywhere. They are doing some charity work out of temple funds to feed homeless persons which is really good.

Dwarka (audio speaker iconpronunciation (help·info)) is a city and a municipality of Devbhumi Dwarka district in the state of Gujarat in Western India. It is located on the western shore of the Okhamandal Peninsula on the right bank of the Gomti River, at the mouth of the Gulf of Kutch facing the Arabian Sea. The city has a hot, arid climate with a 16-day rainy season. It had a population of 38,873 in 2011.The city's economy is tourism-based. Dwarka is one of four sacred Hindu pilgrimage sites collectively called the Chardham, and is one of the seven-most-ancient religious cities (Sapta Puri) in India. Dwarka is often identified with the Dwarka Kingdom, described in the Bhagavata Purana as the ancient kingdom of Krishna, and is believed to have been the first capital of Gujarat. The main festival of Janmashtami is celebrated in Bhadrapada (August–September).Dwarka is believed to have been the first capital of Gujarat.[1] The city's name literally means gateway.[2] Dwarka has also been referred to throughout its history as "Mokshapuri", "Dwarkamati", and "Dwarkavati".[3] It is mentioned in the ancient prehistoric epic period of the Mahabharata.[2] According to legend, Krishna settled here after he defeated and killed his uncle Kansa at Mathura.[4] This mythological account of Krishna's migration to Dwarka from Mathura is closely associated with the culture of Gujarat.[5] Krishna is also said to have reclaimed 12 yojanas or 96 square kilometres (37 sq mi) of land from the sea to create Dwarka.[6] Dwarka was established as the capital in Saurashtra by the Vedic Indians during the Puranaic.[citation needed] The Yadavas, who had migrated from Mathura, established their kingdom here when the city was known as "Kaushathali". It was during this period that the city underwent rebuilding and was named Dwarka.[7] A friendly population of natives also prompted Krishna to settle at Dwarka when he decided, after fighting Jarasandha, the king of Magadh, to retreat from Mathura. The kingdom, also known as the Yaduvanshi empire, was established by Uugrasena, father of Kansa the then ruler and later Krishna flourished and extended its domain.[8] It is said that Krishna conducted the administration of his kingdom from Dwarka while residing with his family in Bet Dwarka.[9] The city's Dwarkadhish Temple dedicated to Krishna was originally built around 2,500 years ago, but was destroyed by Mahmud Begada rulers and subsequently rebuilt in the 16th century. The temple is also the location of Dwaraka maţha, also called Sharada Matha/Peeth and "western peeth",[10][note 1] one of the four peeths (Sanskrit: "religious center") established by Adi Shankaracharya. As an important pilgrimage centre for Hindus, Dwarka has several notable temples, including Rukmini Devi Temple, Gomti Ghat, and Bet Dwarka. There is also a lighthouse at the land end point of Dwarka.

Awesome place. I planned 2 Day and 1 Night trip and visited all places Places to visit in Dwarka Day 1 Dwarkadish Mandir Ghat near Dwarkadish Mandir Small other temples near by Dwarkadish Mandir Gomti River Sudama Setu Beach near Dwarkadish Mandir (Best for sunrise and sunset) Shivrajpur Beach (Rides available here) Dwarka Market Day 2 Nageshwar Mahadev Jyotirlinga Mandir Bhet Dwarka Gopi Talab Rukmani Mandir Other For lunch and Dinner must try Gujarati Thali. Punjabi and other food are costly. Gujarati thali is just for 100 to 140 and it's unlimited.

The place has an amazing attraction and vibe. The entire stretch from the car parking to the temple has an old world charm. Although the temple was renovated after the Bhuj earthquake, few stones from old temple reminds one of its 5000 year old history. One can feel the presence of Lord Krishna there. A must visit for all devotees and even for those looking for some peace..

This is one of the four Chardham. Is it way more beautiful than you can ever imagine. The road on the way to the temple is under construction so you have to park almost a km away from the temple and take an auto/tuktuk to the temple. Further the beauty inside the temple is tremendous and there are multiple small temples inside. Security is almost managed and you can donate as per your pockets which is being used for temple development. Further it is a must visit devotional place.

This year I thought of visiting as my lack of friends & for the past 2 years the traveling was not possible. As I visited the place for 1st time I'd like to simply put it as "So far so good" A peaceful place with a huge variety of stuff to buy from around the temple as it is surrounded by a huge market of sorts. As all the devotees visit in Shravan-Mas or at Janmashtami, the place is usually crowded, but it doesn't matter - crowded or not it is simply peaceful

Its stunning architecture, rich history, and the serene ambiance make it a must-visit for spiritual seekers and tourists alike. The temple's dedication to Lord Krishna, along with its scenic location by the Arabian Sea, creates a sense of tranquility and divinity that is truly enchanting. Whether you're a devotee or a traveler, a visit to Dwarkadhish Temple is an experience filled with spirituality and beauty.

It's an amazing temple and constructed arround 15 century. Architecture of the temple is simply superb and we didn't find many temples like this. Visit this temple Day time and Night time to experience the difference between day light and night lamps. It's good to know the history of the temple before your visit. Just find the multiple floors in the main temple.

Awesome place to visit...so calm n clean sea beach with presence of almighty God - Gateway to heaven!!

The holy place for Lord Krishna in Gujarat, this place had all the hype. The temple is unusually big when you go close to the entrance. The carvings and the main deity at the sanctum is all that makes your day a memorable one.

The temple's vibe is pure, and the architecture is flawless... makes one believe that Lord Krishna (Dwarkadhish) himself resides there. But do note that the security personnel are very rude. Just too rude, and they should be properly trained in terms of how to fulfill their roles rather than disrespecting the bhakts. You cannot take your phone inside the temple.

This is a nice hotel with beautiful location on the sea shore. A perfect place to stay with family while pilgrimage.

Wonderful place to visit. One can feel the peace of mind as the environment near and in the Dwarkadhish Temple is having different level. Well arranged counters to drop your shoes /Mobile safely free of cost. Sudama bridge 🌉 at Dwarkadhish Temple was having beautiful views. One can easily spend hours there with full satisfaction. Great place to visit.

Divinely place..spiritual..superb architecture. Felt blessed after having darshan of Dwarkadhish. Good to see the flag change ceremony.

One of the four dhams of Hinduism. A very old temple dedicated to Lord Krishna. Beautiful architecture. Mobile phones are not allowed inside the temple premises.

Amazing. No word can describe this place. Very good beach near Sudama setu. So many hotels are available nearby & supportive local public. Roads are still under develop.

Today morning we visited this temple...a very ancient srikrishna Temple constructed in multi floors.... situated close to the main road.... adequate parking facility is available...a very beautiful seashore and fantastic views close to the mandir.. arathy is daily here.. Flag on the top of the mandir is changed seven times daily.. special prayer on poornima...a lot of devotees come for prayer on the day... every day huge devotees are coming for darshan from various parts of Bharat...thulabharam znd annadanam are special offering...a very nice temple to visit for getting married peace

I am giving 4 stars because as soon as you enter the temple with flowers and sweets in your hand, you suddenly get encountered by pandits who will first chant some mantras and then ask for a lot of money. They literally loot you in name of God. Please beware of such pandits and just keep on following the queue. Even if they force you, don’t go with them.

Ancient Shreekrishna Temple is closed in the afternoon 1-5 pm and a few more specific time slots throughout the day. Hence, plan your visit accordingly. Devotee crowd management is the worst. Avoid weekends and long weekends. Surroundings are noisy in peak hours, but views and scenes are excellent. Don't miss sunset on the beach. Parking arrangements are good and have lots of options for lodging/hotels in the vicinity.

Dwarkadhish Temple is also called as Jagat ( world) temple by hindu devotees . This place was believed to be second capital of Sri Krishna after Mathura (U.P.) in India. During Deepawali and other religious days it observes great rush od devotees .

A divine place to find peace mental satisfaction. A pilgrimage for the Hindus and has a beautiful idol of the creator and the owner of the entire universe Rajadhiraj Dwarkadhish Shri Krishna ❤️. Jay Dwarkadhish 💛👑

The experience we had here can't be described in words but I will still try and attempt doing it here. The first day when we went here for darshans, it was raining heavily and because of that extreme weather we saw 2 flags being hoisted on the temple top at the same time. It was once in a lifetime experience. Even the priest there told us that this is the first time he's seen 2 flags on the flagpost at the same time in his 20-25 years of experience working in the temple. We danced our hearts out at the time of aarti. The second day when we went for darshans, it was quite sunny and the entire temple was decorated with chhappan bhog made from desi ghee. The entire hallway smelled of desi ghee, and it felt really mesmerizing seeing so many dishes including laddoo, modak, barfi, peda and fruits placed in front of Shree Dwarkadhish idol. The experience was surreal. We had langar here which costed Rs.20 per person. It is conducted once in the morning and once in the evening everyday.

Superb temple.... Only prob is you cant take cell phone inside due to security issues... Though lockers are available outside where you can safely keep your cell. Auto usually takes minimum 50rs for 1-1.5kms

The architecture of this temple is amazing and so beautiful. There is so much positive energy around it that you will just get lost in it. It's mesmerizing and peaceful!!

Lord Krishna city in gujrat I had enjoyed my time dwarka I suggest all must visit once in life here holy religious place for Hindus......

very peaceful temple. Must visit once. located at arabian sea.

Execellent religious place. You can feel the vibe of Lord Krishna everywhere in Dwarka. The temple is located on the banks of Gomati River. It's very historic place. Yhe surroundings area has well developed including the beach. Cleanliness is something they can improve in near by area of temple. At Sangam, Gomati river meets the Arabian Sea.

This is the first time I have been to Dwarkadhish temple and had such a wonderful experience. Temple has old sculpture. You will feel the +ve vibes inside the temple.

Adorable place 😍,, Just go and enjoy your Trip.

The main draw for tourists coming to Dwarka, the Dwarkadhish Temple (Jagat Mandir), is believed to have been established more than 2500 years ago by Lord Krishna’s great grandson, Vajranabh. The ancient temple has been renovated several times, especially leaving imprints of 16th and 19th centuries. The temple stands on a small hill accessed by 50 plus steps, with heavily sculptured walls that cocoon the sanctum with the main Krishna idol. Around the complex lie other smaller shrines. The walls have intricately carved mythical characters and legends. The impressive 43 m high spire is topped with a flag made from 52 yards of cloth that flutters in the soft breeze from the Arabian Sea behind the temple. There are two doors (swarg and moksh) for the entry and exit of the temple. A bridge called Sudama Setu (7am–1pm, 4–7.30pm) at the base of the temple takes one across the Gomti creek towards the beach. Dwarka on the western tip of the Kathiawar Peninsula is clubbed with the holiest sites in India – the Char Dhams that include Badrinath, Puri and Rameshwaram. It is believed that Lord Krishna arrived here from Braj in Uttar Pradesh to build the city. The temple was established by his grandson. It is at the cusp of the Gomti River and the Arabian Sea, providing a scenic backdrop to the spiritual site. It is said that Dwarka was submerged under the sea six times and what we see now is its seventh avatar. The temple itself has a fascinating legend. The original structure was destroyed by Mahmud Begada in 1472, and subsequently rebuilt in the 15th-16th century. It was also feted by Adi Shankaracharya, the 8th century Hindu theologian and philosopher.

A true spiritual and divine place. The management needs to be improved more. Furthermore, the temple won't forbid to get a glimpse of the holy idol. A must visit place once in a lifetime. The yellow sandstone and the intricating details/carvings will surely leave you astonished.

The temple was so peaceful. First 'of all don't visit the hotels that are near by because the water facility is very poor . Search for dharmashala all will cost you same . Try to visit the temple in the morning with sunrise and then go for many more near by temple. Temple also have bhojnalaya they will cost you 30Rupes per person.

Wonder full spiritual experience to see one of the India's oldest city known as Devbhoomi Dhwarka a Land of Lord Krishna.

Great experience and filling. Darshan of Lord Krishan remain memorable through out the life. But too much gathering is there due to which only a few seconds one can see the Dwarkadhish.

Such Amazing vibes.. Shree Dwarkadhish is also called Jagadguru and the temple is also Called Jagat temple. It purifies your soul and fills your heart with joy and devotion. You can really feel Shree Krishna's presence if you try with pure heart

One of the few temples where you will find peace. I visited this temple in 2023 June first week, temperature was high, rush was maximum but the moment you enter the temple u are at ease and peace. Free of charge service to keep your footwear, car keys and phones is available.

Amazing temple great architecture. Dwarkadhish mandir and gomti ghat is a must vist temple for all. Mobile is not allowed inside temple premises, so leave your phone at the hotel or at the sweet shop in front of the mandir stairs.

Totally holy Jai Dwarkadhish....do even check out the local stores there. Evening around sunset visit the temple you can even see the Dhwaj changing ceremony and its really beautiful. The temple is closed in afternoon re opens at 5 pm

Perfect place for kaana(lord krishna) lovers. Will surely enjoy the surrounding ❤️

So positive and peaceful vibe one will get. It’s too crowded as well. Be careful of priests who asks for donations and all. This temple also situated near to beach. Evening time is so amazing. Felt blessed and lucky to complete all of char Dham.

Best for visiting

Loved the temple. One should visit here once.

No doubt beautiful and peaceful.

One of the best temples

It's purely divine. Seeing the temple from sudama Bridge and from other side of gomti River the view is awesome 👌👌👌👍

Lord krishna

Loved it

It's really a peaceful place where you can feel the vibration. You get goosebumps during the Aarti as it is performed by the priests that becomes a high for the public witnessing the bells ringing louder and louder, lights shining bright, people standing in queue are just trying to get one glance of Lord Krishna. Photography is not allowed inside the temple neither you can take your purse, so it's recommended to leave your belongings inside the car,hotel or you can deposit it at the counter. You can carry money , fliwer garland, and prasad tokri to offer in the temple. There are 2 entrance. Sudhama gate has stairs so for old people and others who faces problem with stairs it recommended to go from the main entrance .

Nice place to visit

Peaceful place

Good Temple for tourism

Most attracted tourist destination, located near gomti ghat. The residence of Lord Krishna. Beautiful place, atmost serinity, Must visited.

Nice and calm atmosphere with tight security and post covid precautions. The temple is still unspoiled by haggling agents of God who are self proclaimed.

Lovely place. Sri Krishna work place. Historical and mythological importance.

Dwarkadish Temple is a really good place to visit with family. You cannot take phones or any other electronic devices inside though. There's a market before the temple. Beware of the pandits of the temple as they WILL trick you to donate a good amount to their organisation, but if you wanna do it by your own, you're all up for it.
