Description

Dwarka is among the most sacred of tirthas since it is both a dhaam and a saptapuri. In this book discover the great dhaam of Dwarka and its sacred Dwarkadhish temple. Ancient Dwaravati was the capital of Krishna's kingdom and hence he is worshipped here as Dwarkadhish, the Lord of Dwarka. Mirabai spent her last days here, singing hymns to her dark god, and in the eighth century. Adi Shankaracharya established the Sharada Math here. A place vibrant with myths and legends, Dwarka is one of India's most frequented pilgrimages.
