History of Govardhan Hill in Mathura
Govardhan Hill is also called Govardhan Parvat and Mount Govardhan. It is a sacred mountain located in Braj. It is a sacred mountain. There is an interesting story behind it that is very famous among Hindus. The people of Braj village used to worship Lord Indra. Lord Indra is the God of Rain according to Hindu mythology. People of Braj used to harvest their field in this mountain itself. One day, Lord Krishna argued with villagers to worship this mountain instead of Lord Indra because they get food, shelter and other resources from Govardhan Hill. But Lord Indra got angry seeing people of Braj worshipping Goavrdhan Parvat instead of him. He got angry and started torrential rain to destroy the Braj Village.
After seeing this, Lord Krishna showed his Leela by lifting the Govardhan Hill on his little finger for seven days and giving shelter and saving people of Braj from the anger of Lord Indra. Since then, devotees do Parikarma of Govardhan Hill. This Parikarma covers 21 kilometres of total distance.
