About Kusum Sarovar
Kusum Sarovar is a beautiful sandstone reservoir near Govardhan Hill, associated with Radha and Krishna's divine pastimes. It is believed that Radha Rani and the gopis collected flowers (kusum) here for Krishna.
The grand cenotaph-style architecture built in Rajasthani style makes it one of the most picturesque places in Braj.
