Radha Raman Temple was founded in 1542 by Gopal Bhatta Goswami, a senior teacher of the Chaitanya tradition. It is one of the Seven Great Temples of Vrindavan. The small Krishna image is said to have appeared naturally from a sacred shaligram stone. Since its founding, it has never been moved, and it has been cared for by the Goswami family for generations. The temple architecture is simple, but its worship rituals and offerings are very elaborate. Devotees believe the sacred hearth here has not gone out in hundreds of years. The temple sits in the narrow lanes of the old town near Nidhivan. Entry is free. Photography is not allowed, and the temple closes at midday.
