Located in the northern part of India, this is a perfect weekend getaway for those residing in or around the capital of the country, Delhi.  After looking up for the famous places to visit in Vrindavan (also known as God’s own abode), surfing on the internet to find facts about Vrindavan India and packing our backpacks, we started our 3 hours of road journey to Mathura from New Delhi at half past 5 in the morning.
