Situated on the banks of the holy River Yamuna, Kusum Sarovar lake has immense mythological significance. This 450-feet deep reservoir which is surrounded by stairs on all sides, goes back to the era of Lord Krishna and Radha. As the popular story goes, Lord Krishna used to come to this place to meet the love of his life, Radha, and the other Gopis. The peaceful environment, the sacred waters and the magnificent structures surrounding the lake add to the attractiveness of this place.
