Delhi was the Pandavas' Indraprastha, and Lord Krishna came here many times. Based on the available history books, these four places in today's Delhi were visited by him:

1. Indraprastha, the Pandavas' Delhi, inside the Purana Qila near the Zoo. 2. The Kalka Devi Mandir at Kalkaji. 3. The Neeli Chhatri Wala Mandir on the bank of the Yamuna near Nigam Bodh Ghat; the original was demolished by the Mughals, and the present temple is next to the flyover on the left, just after Nigam Bodh Ghat when coming from ISBT towards the old Yamuna bridge. 4. The Yogmaya Mandir at Mehrauli, the temple of Krishna's sister.
