Description

Bhaktivedanta Narayana Gosvami
From the book “Sri Vraja-maṇḍala-parikramā”:
Pūñcharī marks the southern border of Govardhana. We have previously said that Govardhana’s form resembles a cow, but it can also be likened to a peacock. This part, Pūñcharī, is raised high like the peacock’s tail (pūñcha). Parikramā of Govardhana’s eastern side is completed here, and from here parikramā of the western side begins. Apsarā-kuṇḍa and Navala-kuṇḍa are situated here.
