Vishram Ghat is a ghat, a bath and worship place, on the banks of river Yamuna in Mathura, India. The traditional parikrama starts and ends at Vishram Ghat. Krishna is said to have rested at this place after killing Kamsa and the name Vishram Ghat is in reference to this as it means "ghat of rest." However, according to the Varāha Purāṇa, it was Vasudeva who rested at the site and is whom the ghat is named after. None of the Vaishnavite deities present at the ghat mentioned by Rupa Goswami in the 16th century survive to modern day. According to tradition, the site was formerly a cremation ground. The ghat's structures were built over the centuries by noble and royal patrons.
