The Legendary Kingdom

About Dwarka

One of Hinduism's Char Dham and Sapta Puri sites — the city Lord Krishna built, and the sea later reclaimed.

A City of Two Realities

Myth and history, side by side

Dwarka, the legendary kingdom of Lord Krishna, is one of Hinduism's Char Dham pilgrimage sites and among the Sapta Puri — the seven sacred cities believed to bestow liberation (moksha). According to tradition, the city was built by Lord Vishwakarma, the divine architect, and was later submerged beneath the Arabian Sea after Lord Krishna's departure.

Where Archaeology Meets Legend

A gateway, in every sense

The discovery of submerged structures off the coast of Dwarka has added a fascinating archaeological dimension to its ancient legends, making it a place where mythology and history continue to inspire pilgrims and researchers alike.

The name Dwarka, derived from the Sanskrit word Dwar meaning "gateway," symbolizes the gateway to spiritual liberation.

A Living Tradition

Millions still come

Revered for centuries, the city remains a vibrant center of faith, where daily rituals, temple traditions, and the timeless devotion to Lord Krishna continue to draw millions of devotees from across the world.
