Sri Rangnath Ji Mandir - Hindu temple in Vrindavan - Mathura, India

Though it was a very peaceful and nice place to visit but there is a terror of monkeys. They snitch belongings like bags and especially specs. After snatching if you give them fruti or maza then they will give you back your belongings.

Very beautiful mandir, very peaceful & tranquil! Loved visiting here! Must visit when in Vrindavan. Also, buy your souvenirs from here because they're cheaper in comparison to anywhere else in Vrindavan. Tip: don't go here wearing glasses because monkeys snatch them away & they might chew or break your glasses. If they take it away then offer them a small frooti and they'll return your glasses right away! This applies to everywhere in Vrindavan, not just Sri Rangnath Ji temple!
