Uma Shakti Peeth is one of the sacred Shakti Peethas located in Mathura, dedicated to Goddess Uma (another name for Goddess Parvati), the consort of Lord Shiva. Shakti Peethas are important pilgrimage sites in Hinduism, believed to be places where parts of Goddess Sati's body or her ornaments fell after her self-immolation and subsequent disintegration by Lord Vishnu’s Sudarshan Chakra.
At Uma Shakti Peeth, it is believed that Goddess Sati’s hair (Kesha) fell, making this temple a significant site for devotees of the Divine Mother. The temple is known for its peaceful ambiance, devotional energy, and spiritual significance. Pilgrims visit to seek blessings for strength, protection, and prosperity, and to connect with the divine feminine energy of Shakti. For a comfortable and convenient trip to this architectural marvel, Mathura Taxi Service provides reliable transportation.

I booked a 4 day Taxi package for Mathura-Vrindavan-Barsana-Agra through Mathura Taxi service after contacting atleast 4-5 taxi service operators of that region…They offered the cheapest package… The driver was very polite and had a very good knowledge of the tourist places…Overall I had a great experience. Strongly recommended !

Hired their services for 2 days Mathura, Vrindavan and Agra tour. The car was excellent condition. I always say this - your tour is either good or bad depending on the driver and I am very happy we were assigned Ravi bhaiya. He was an amazing, soft spoken and professional driver. We were very relaxed and enjoyed our selves in his company. I was traveling with my parents so their comfort was my primary requirement and I am glad I hired Mathura car services. The correspondence on the phone Gaurav ji is polite and speaks respectfully in all communications.

We hired the taxi services from Mathura Taxi Service for a week during our Mathura Vrindavan and Agra trip. The vehicle provided was a good one and our driver Pavan Kumar Ji was very helpful and a reliable person. I would definitely hired their services if I plan any further visit to Mathura Vrindavan. The owner Mr. Gaurav Sharma Ji was very nice and polite. Best wishes for Mathura Taxi Service. :)
