<p>The Gopinath temple was built by Raysal Darbari, an officer in Akbar’s court from 1580-1585.<br />
The deity of this temple is said to be the one that was  worshipped by Lord Krishna’s grandson Vajranabh and was rediscovered by Padmanabh Bhattacharya at Banshivat.<br />
During the early part of the 18th century the idol of the temple was shifted to Jaipur, the centre of Kachhwaha power.<br />

While locals attribute this shift to  Aurangzeb and the uncertainty that prevailed post the destruction of the Keshavdas temple, a few scholars suggest that it could also be due to the Jat and Kachhwaha fight for supremacy in  that area, leading to uncertainty and break down of law and order.<br />
A new haveli type temple was built next to it.<br />

Here Lord Krishna and Radha Rani and her sister Lalita are worshipped.</p>
<p>Vrindavan has four temples made by nobles/officers of Akbar.<br />
Their red sandstone shikhars and buildings tower over the holy city.<br />
Vrindavan was a major centre of Gaudiya Vaishnavism, followers of Chaitanya Mahaprabhu.<br />
Two of Akbar’s most important courtiers, Man Singh I (1550-1614), the Kachhwaha ruler of the western Indian kingdom of Amber, and Todar Mal (d. 1589), a minister in Akbar’s court, were key patrons of Gaudiya temples.<br />
Akbar gave land grants to thirty-five temples in Vrindavan from 1565 onwards.<br />
These 35 were chosen after a 1589 imperial survey of the important temples in the region to continue receiving royal benefaction.<br />
