Surasena (or Shourasena) was the kingdom around the modern Brajabhumi. It was the sacred land of Lord Krishna in which he was born, raised, and ruled. It was an ancient Janapada. It has been well mentioned in Mahabharata.

Its capital was Mathura which was situated at the bank of the river Yamuna. Now it is a holy place for all Hindus. The main gosthis which ruled the Surasena were Shorasenee, Yadavas or Yadukul, Brishnis, etc.
