The Braj 84 Kosh Yatra is one of the most revered pilgrimages in Hinduism, deeply rooted in the devotion to Lord Krishna. "84 Kosh" refers to the ancient circular pilgrimage path (approximately 252 kilometers) that covers the divine land of Braj, where Lord Krishna is believed to have spent his childhood and youth, performing divine pastimes (leelas) with his devotees.
This sacred journey takes devotees across the beautiful landscapes of Mathura, Vrindavan, Barsana, Nandgaon, Govardhan, Gokul, Baldev, and many more holy villages and kunds, each telling a unique story from Krishna’s life. Pilgrims immerse themselves in devotion through bhajan-kirtan, parikrama, temple darshans, kund snans (holy dips), and satsangs. It is believed that completing this yatra with true devotion helps attain moksha (liberation) and the eternal grace of Lord Krishna.
This 8-day pilgrimage is not just a physical journey but a soul-stirring spiritual experience that connects you with the eternal leelas of Shri Krishna and Radha Rani.
