A temple marks the birthplace of Lord Krishna today in Mathura. A
narrow passage leads one into a small room with a raised platform
adorned with pictures of Krishna as a child to the left. The story of
His birth is written and depicted on the walls. A narrow set of marble
steps leads you to the terrace and a walled corridor creates the
effect of a prison. The prison and the other buildings were razed to
the ground in the 17th century but were restored in 1962 by
industrialists like G.D. Birla.
