About Gop
Gop is a Rabari cattle breeders tribe, who are considered the direct descendants from the Krishna dynasty (Yadavs). They have been settled here since thousands of years. The village is also named Gop where there is a temple popularly known as the Gopnath Mahadev Temple. It is not clear whether this 6th century temple originally enshrined the Sun or Lord Shiva. This temple is about 7 km away from the ST bus stand. Thereafter one may ascend up its 600 steps. However, one can also choose to drive up all the way in a vehicle. Shri Vallabhacharya has given his discourses here and hence it is considered as one of the 84 Mahaprabhuji ni Bethaks.
