Govardhan Parvat, also known as Govardhan Hill, holds religious significance in Hinduism. The celebration associated with it is called Govardhan Puja or Annakut. It commemorates the lifting of Govardhan Hill by Lord Krishna to protect the residents of Vrindavan from the wrath of Lord Indra's rain.
The story goes that instead of worshiping Lord Indra, the villagers decided to worship Govardhan Hill. This angered Lord Indra, who retaliated with heavy rainfall. To save the people, Lord Krishna lifted Govardhan Hill on his little finger, providing shelter for the villagers. Govardhan Puja is a way of expressing gratitude to the divine for protection and symbolizes the importance of nature and community over individual deities.
