Banke Bihari Temple Vrindavan-Timings, VIP Darshan Booking & Visitor Tips

Banke Bihari Temple in Vrindavan, is perhaps the most famous Krishna temple in India and attracts thousands of devotees a day. The timings of the darshan of the temple vary according to season: in the summer months, it is from 7:30 AM to 1:30 PM and 4:30 PM to 8:30 PM; in the winter months, the timings vary depending on temperature, sunrise, and sunset, etc. The temple will conduct three main aartis: Shringar Aarti in the morning, Rajbhog Aarti at noon, and Shayan Aarti at night; each aarti marks a specific stage of worship and allows the devotee an opportunity to witness the deity in varying moods or states. VIP darshan is available for a hold and wait time, as well, in relative comfort. Generally, all that is required is a donation, for the services, in addition to the regular darshan. The primary purpose of the VIP darshan, outside of donation, is to allow for visitation of the temple in times when the crowds tend to be relentless; for example, during noted festivals such as Janmashtami and Holi. A visit to Banke Bihari Temple is an absolute must when on the soulful pilgrimage to Vrindavan; it will create a spiritual bliss while also providing richer tradition.
