Radha-Krishna idols with precious jewels worth 100 crores!!!

Along with Lord Krishna, temples are also decorated on Janmashtami. Jhakis are decorated and Kanha is adorned as much as possible, but in the temple about which we are going to tell, Radha-Krishna is adorned with precious jewels worth 100 crores.


On the day of Janmashtami, especially the ornaments are taken out from the bank and adorned with the Lord. So let's know about the history and specialty of Gopal temple located in Phool bagh of Gwalior.

People come from far and wide to see the special worship and makeup of god to be done on Janmashtami. Here Lord Radha-Krishna is decorated with diamonds, emeralds, rubies, topaz, sapphires, gold-silver studded ornaments. A crown studded with gold and diamonds is worn to the Lord. The makeup of god in the temple is also shown from data-facebook Live.

At the time of adornment with ornaments worth Rs 100 crore, the police-force is put in the protection of Lord Radha-Krishna. Gopal Mandir was built by the Scindia dynasty in the year 1921. After this, Maharaj Madhavrao of the princely state of Scindia got it renovated and diamonds and emeralds were made in the priceless ornaments for the Lord.

After independence, the Scindia dynasty handed over the maintenance of this temple to the government of India, which was later kept in the locker of the district treasury and on every Janmashtami it is taken out from the treasury for the decoration of the Lord and after Janmashtami it is put back in the treasury.
