The chief temple of Dwarka, one of the Char Dham and Sapta Puri, honouring Krishna as the king of his island kingdom. The towering five-storey shrine, crowned by a great flag changed several times daily, dates in parts to the 16th century over far older foundations. It marks the western point of the four cardinal pilgrimages.
