Is Shahji Temple the same as Radha Raman Temple?

No. While they are close by and the deity is called "Chhote Radha Raman," the temples are distinct. Shahji Temple is famous for its unique "spiral columns" and architecture.

When does the Basanti Kamra open?

The famous "Spring Room" opens only on Basant Panchami (Jan/Feb) and during the Jhulan Yatra (July/August). It remains closed for the rest of the year.

Is there an entry fee?

Darshan is completely free. You may choose to give a donation at the official temple counter for the upkeep of the heritage structure.

Is it accessible for wheelchairs?

While the temple has marble steps, assisted guidance can help navigate the complex. It is advisable to visit during the morning slot for a less crowded experience.
