Tikari Rani Temple (Devraha Baba Bhakti Dham) - Vrindavan

Tikari Rani temple is also known as the temple of Radha Indra Kishore after its founder. The temple was built by Queen Indrajit Kunwar, widow of a landlord Shri Hetram Ji of Tikari nearby Gaya.
200 years ago when the Queen of Tekari was on her way to visit Vrindavan she was attacked by some dacoits who wanted to rob her of her belongings.
She ran away protecting her beloved deity of Gopal along the banks of Yamuna River and managed safely to reach the other side of the river. It is this place where the Tekari Rani temple has been built for over 150 years now. It took about 6 years of time for the construction of the temple and was completed in 1871. The spire of the temple is surmounted with a copper finial which is heavily gilt. The temple is raised on a high and enriched plinth and the complete design of the temple is simple and beautiful with its exceptional Rajasthani architecture. The worshipable deities of the temple are those of Radha Krishna as Radha Rajendra Sarkar, Radha Gopal, and a small deity of Sri Ladoo Gopal. Later the temple was donated to Devraha Baba by Queen Indrajit Kunwar.
Now the temple is known as Devraha Baba Bhakti Dham.
