rishna Janmashtami is a Hindu festival that celebrates the birth of Krishna, the eighth avatar of Vishnu. It is observed on the eighth day of the dark fortnight in the month of Bhadrapada, which falls in August or September in the Gregorian calendar.
In 2023, Krishna Janmashtami will be celebrated on both September 6 and 7, but it is better if you celebrate this festival on the first day.
KRISHNA JANMASHTAMI 2023: WHEN AND WHY ON THIS DATE?
This year, after years, such a coincidence has happened when both Ashtami Tithi and Rohini Nakshatra will be together. Ashtami Tithi will start on September 6 at 03:37 pm and will end on September 7 at 4:14 pm.
On the other hand, Rohini Nakshatra will start at 9.20 am on September 6 and end at 10.25 am on September 7. In this way, there will be a coincidence of both Ashtami and Rohini Nakshatra at 12 o’clock in the night of 6th September. Therefore, Krishna Janmashtami will be celebrated on September 6, as Krishna was born in the Rohini nakshatra. The Dahi Handi celebrations will take place on September 7.

Mathura and Vrindavan are two of the most important pilgrimage sites for Hindus, as they are the birthplace and childhood home of Krishna, respectively. Krishna Janmashtami is celebrated with great pomp and ceremony in these two cities, and the festivities are a major tourist attraction.
In Mathura, the main temple dedicated to Krishna is the Shri Krishna Janmasthan Temple. The temple is located on the site of Krishna’s birth, and it is believed to be the oldest temple in Mathura. On the day of Krishna Janmashtami, the temple is decorated with flowers and lights, and a large crowd of devotees gathers to celebrate.
The highlight of the festivities in Mathura is the midnight procession of the newborn Krishna. A small image of Krishna is placed in a cradle and carried through the streets of the city. The procession is accompanied by music, dancing, and chanting.
In Vrindavan, the main temple dedicated to Krishna is the Radha Vallabh Temple. The temple is located in the village of Gokul, where Krishna spent his childhood. On the day of Krishna Janmashtami, the temple is decorated with flowers and lights, and a large crowd of devotees gathers to celebrate.
The highlight of the festivities in Vrindavan is the Rasa Lila, a dance drama that depicts Krishna’s childhood pranks and romance with Radha. The Rasa Lila is performed in the evening, and it is a popular attraction for both Hindus and tourists.
