Overview

Govardhan Puja for families in Cantonment

Govardhan Puja is celebrated on Kartik Shukla Pratipada, the day after Diwali. It remembers Lord Krishna lifting Govardhan Parvat on his little finger to shelter the people and cattle of Vraj from the rains sent by Indra.

The Cantonment area is one of the greener, more spacious parts of Varanasi, close to Varanasi Junction railway station. Wide roads, older bungalows and several well-known hotels give it a calmer feel than the busy centre.

वक्रतुण्ड महाकाय सूर्यकोटि समप्रभ।

निर्विघ्नं कुरु मे देव सर्वकार्येषु सर्वदा॥

Planning Your Puja in Cantonment

Convenient for families arriving by train who want a puja soon after reaching Varanasi.
Allow enough time to reach the ghats for sunrise rituals; roads are clear early but busier later.
Hotel lawns or terraces can be requested for a havan, ask the property in advance.
Parts of the area are under cantonment administration, so follow any local access rules.
Good base for elderly family members who prefer a quieter stay.
Decide what you will use to shape the Govardhan: cow dung, clay or food.
Plan the Annakut dishes a day ahead.
