It was really beautiful and spectacular. The architecture is truly mind-blowing. People say that this 'kund' became more attractive and beautiful at night because of all the lights and fountains in it. Unfortunately I did not get the chance to see this myself. Hopefully I can see it in the near future.

It is a Historical pond which reflects the history of Mathura. It's situated besides the Krishna Janmbhoomi temple. Currently the fountain is not working here and the way to go in is also closed. But this looks beautiful. You can find many food outlets nearby to eat and munch your craving.
