30. Shri Shri Chaurasi Khamba Temple
Around the base of Danta-dhavan-tila
stood the residences of Nand as well as those of his brothers and relatives.
The ruins of these houses can still be seen today, even from a distance.
Nand-bhavan
Nanda-bhavan is the place where Krisna
and Balaram lived with Nanda Maharaja and Yasoda. The architect Visvakarma
built the House of Nanda Maharaja over 5,000 years ago. It is on a hill at Old
Gokul. It has 84 pillars and that is why it is called Chaurasi Khamba. Chaurasi
means “84” and the pillars in this temple are said to be the original pillars
from the house of Nanda Maharaja.
