KATHMANDU – Devotees have thronged the Patan Krishna Mandir from early morning today to pay homage to Lord Krishna on the occasion of Shree Krishna Janmastami. Hundreds of devotees have already visited the temple for the worship.

For the worship, the devotees have queued up towards the south and north of the temple from early morning. According to Hindu religious scriptures, Lord Shree Krishna was born in the midnight of Bhadrakrishna Ashtami day as per the lunar calendar during the Dwapar era and the day is marked as the Krishna Janmastami.

In the past three years, limited number of devotees turned up the famous Krishna Mandir in Patan Durbar Square, Lalitpur, due to the COVID-19 pandemic.
