Kanak Vrindavan - Jaipur    Share

A very peaceful and clean garden. As the gardens is very well maintained and has a rich heritage and culture. Situated very close to Amer Palace, though it is not a crowded place. One can spent a very good time in the garden. The scenic beauty and vivid dimensions of great natural view really attracts photo lovers here.

This is the best garden park I have visited in India. Best time to visit is in the evening. The ticket price as on Nov 2019 is Rs 25 for Indians. Feels so peaceful !

Nice place it is... The environment is so cool and fresh air everywhere... Greenery is surrounded in each corner... The refreshments are also available there..and most importantly perfect place for pre wedding shoots.

Kanak Vrindavan is a garden in Jaipur, the capital of Rajasthan. It is built in a valley surrounded by Aravali hills and is located on the way to the Amer Fort at the bottom of the Nahargarh hill. The place is approx 8 km north of the Jaipur city.[1] The garden complex is having many nearby tourist attractions as the Amer fort Palace, Jaigarh fort and Nahargarh fort along with lots of lush greenery. The garden was coined by Kachchwaha Rajput Maharaja Sawai Jai Singh of Jaipur, approximately 275 years ago, at the time when the complex was built. It includes term 'Vrindavan' as the garden resembles the descriptions of the place, where God Sri Krishna had performed MahaRaas near Mathura, and word Kanak came from Maharaja’s one of the Maharani Kanakde.[2] This garden is compared to the valley of Vrindavan and the maharaja, consecrated an idol of Sri Krishna in a temple in the Kanak Vrindavan valley called the Shri Govind Deoji Parisar. The garden has a temple, a series of fountains and intricate marble decorations. It is managed by the Government of Rajasthan. History The Kanak Vrindavan Valley Complex was built approximately 275 years ago by Maharaja Sawai Jai Singh of Jaipur. This beautiful, greenery filled valley is surrounded by the Aravalli hills and often said to resemble the Vrindavan; the place where Lord Krishna enjoyed the Maharaas with Gopis. The Kanak Vrindavan Valley was built for entertainment and recreation of Maharani and the Maharaja. According to some people the Maharaja planned for an Ashvamedha Yagna and made arrangement of waters from sacred rivers to collect here. A Lord Krishna Temple named Govind Deoji was also built around the same time.[2]

One can get Peace of mind there. The park is located outskirts of the concrete jungle. Nearby hills looks awesome and the temples really calm down one tiredness. The greenery around the park makes it look gorgeous.
