About the project

Sanket Van Ashram is envisioned as a serene tropical garden and spiritual retreat inspired by the Babuji Vanam concept at Kanha Shanti Vanam. Located near the sacred Vivhal Kund, where Lord Krishna and Radha Rani are believed to have met for the first time, the project aims to create a peaceful landscape that blends spirituality, nature and ecological sustainability.

The proposal includes a tropical garden with Kadamba groves, native flowering trees, shaded pathways, meditation pods, gazebos, satsang lawns, circular seating spaces and water-sensitive landscape features. Tree-lined parking, pergolas with creepers, lotus ponds and natural stone pathways provide a tranquil experience while preserving the sanctity of the site. Designed with sustainable landscaping principles and native Braj vegetation, it will become a living spiritual sanctuary where visitors can meditate, reflect, reconnect with nature and experience the timeless divine love of Radha and Krishna.
