  • Брадж или Вра́джа (хинди ब्रज), также Бра́джбуми, Враджабху́ми — исторический регион в индийских штатах Уттар-Прадеш, Раджастхан и Харьяна. Является священным местом паломничества для вайшнавов, так как согласно Пуранам и другим текстам индуизма, в Брадже родился и провёл свою юность Кришна. Самые крупные города на территории региона — Матхура, Агра, Алигарх и Майнпури. Жителей Враджи называют «бриджбаси» или «враджабаси». Население разговаривает на диалекте хинди, именуемом брадж (брадж бхаша). (ru)
