About Janmashtami in Dwarka

The Dwarka city or Dwarkadhish was established by Lord Krishna himself with help of his elder brother Balram. The city also is known by the name of Golden city. The Dwarakadhish temple is the point of attraction in the place as its Lord Krishna's temple. A celebration of Janmashtami is worth watching in the city due to the true devotion of the Dwarka’s culture to Lord Krishna. Janmashtami in Dwarka brings the most pleasant time in the city as it full of joy and happiness.

On the day of Janmashtami till midnight the streets of the city are decorated with lights and flowers to welcome Lord Krishna. There is no sign of dark as the whole city is waiting for their maker to born as midnight. The Dwarkadhish temple is the main place of celebration and Lord Krishna's birthday celebrations over there by all the inhabitants and visitors. Local markets are open until the midnight in case you wanna buy anything on the festival night.

The Janmashtami in Dwarka is not only about the worship there are other activities too that will make you the fan of the place. In the daytime all the boys by making different teams compete in a game which is called the ‘Dahi Handi’. At night during the celebration, there is a Shayan Arti perform by the Temple’s priest at the Dwarkadhish Temple.

    Speqta's 6 days trip to Dwarka

    I have booked first time through Travel triangle. I was good experience however pre trip i have to co-ordinate with the travel agent Inland Tourway several times. Mr. Vikas was the co-ordinator for trip booking he suggested me good trip plan howeven if i need some changes in the trip then we have t
    o take followup from him again and again and most of the time he does not response quickly may be he call after one to two days also some times he does not response on whatsapp also . Still after completing my trip he has not received my call also no reply on whatsapp for GST invoice. In short i would like to say that even if you are good but you should be quick responsive at least . Also At least call to your customer during trip at least once so that customer feel that you are good in your work and also care your customer. I also did not received any call during the trip so it feels like we were solely dependent on the cab driver for all good and bad.

    Supreeti's 4 days trip to Dwarka

    The hotels were good. We were disappointed with breakfast at Dwarka hotel. Also we had to walk long to visit Dwarkadhish temple which was not comfortable at all. As the cab dropped us 1km away from twmple though 4 wheelers were going till bottom of temple. Somnath and Gir were good. The overall trav
    el became hectic due to multiple visiting points which was not needed. Porbandar was very dirty and it could have been avoided in itenary. Gir stay, food and safari.
