Krishna valley
Krishna valley or New Vraja Dhama is the largest eco-friendly farm in Europe with an area of 315 acres.[1] It is situated in Somogyvámos, a village 180 km south-west of Budapest.[2] It was built by ISKCON Hungary.
It was established by Sivarama Swami in 1993.[3] Those who live at Krishna Valley source all their food from their organic farm. They have cattle for dairy products and bees for honey.[4]
The flora and fauna of the Krishna Valley is a special mixture of exotic and native species. Flowers like Frangipáni (Plumeria) which is not native in Hungary is also planted here.[5]
