Radhakund
is a large lake, which is just 5 km north of
Govardhan and 26 km west
of Mathura.
It was here that Shri Krishna is said to have killed a horrible demon. To
commemorate the day when Lord Krishna slayed the bull demon, Arishta,
every year, on the 8th day of the dark half of the month of Kartik
(Oct./Nov.), a large fair is held at this spot.
Just two kms away from here is the large, beautiful Kusum Sarovar, which
is known for its impressive architecture and is the perfect venue for
relaxation, after paying a visit to Radha Kund.
