About Jakhu Temple In Shimla

Jakhu Temple in Shimla is a temple dedicated to Lord Hanuman and is famed for being home to thousands of adorable monkeys. There is a huge statue of Lord Hanuman at the temple, standing at 108 feet high, which is the cynosure of all eyes. The temple is located on the highest peak of Shimla, at a height of 2455 meters, and is a major attraction in terms of religious travelers. While trekking to the temple, visitors can see the 108-feet tall Hanuman Statue in Jakhu Temple, hidden behind the deodar trees. The Hanuman statue is visible from anywhere on the hill.

Jakhu Temple History

It has an interesting legend behind it, related to the Ramayana. It is said that Lord Hanuman rested here while going back to put Sanjeevani Hill back in its place. And this is why the top of Jakhu Hill is flattened. The temple has been constructed around the footprints of Lord Hanuman. It is said that you must ring the bell by the doorway before leaving so that the Lord takes heed of your prayers.

Jakhu Temple timings

The Temple timings for visitors are from 7 am to 8 pm. The Jakhu Temple is located at a distance of 5 km from Mall Road in Shimla. For those wondering how to reach Jakhu Temple should know that taxis are available at Mall Road to visit the temple.

Apart from its religious significance, Jakhu Hill is also a great place to enjoy some of the most beautiful views of Shimla. The lush green winding pathways that take you to the temple are a treat for nature lovers. Well paved and well maintained, people of all ages can easily walk the entire way without breaking a sweat, although you can also make use of the ropeway that has recently been put in place to transfer devotees to the temple.

A good and recommending iternary to others as well but the last volvo bus service was pathetic Sight seeing

Ishani

New delhi

Ishani's 3 days trip to Shimla

The overall experience was average. The hotel was not up to the five-star standard as mentioned by the travel agent — the Wi-Fi was not working during our stay, which was inconvenient. However, the hotel manager’s polite and helpful attitude stood out and was much appreciated. The cab driver was pu

nctual and maintained a polite and professional attitude throughout, which made our travel smoother. That said, I believe the travel agent should take more care in understanding the client’s needs and clearly communicating the reality of what’s being offered, rather than overselling. Transparency builds trust and is more valuable in the long run than just making a sale.

Manikanta's 8 days trip to Shimla

It was 10 days family trip with Travel Talkies, and it was one of the best travel experiences I've had. Every detail was thoughtfully planned, and the journey was filled with scenic beauty, adventure, spirituality, and culture. Special thanks to Manisha Raghuvanshi for coordinating throughout the t

rip and fixed issues immediately. Treated us like a family had close communication each day in WhatsApp and call. Travel Talkies covered Shimla, Kufri, Manali, Kullu, Kasol, Manikaran, Dharamshala, Dalhousie, Wagah Border, and Amritsar and it was absolutely amazing! From scenic view from Shimla and snow-capped mountains in Manali to the peaceful vibes of Manikaran and Dharamshala, the scenic beauty of Khajjiar, and the patriotic energy at Wagah Border, every stop had something unique to offer. The entire trip was smooth and well-organized comfortable cab, good hotels with mountain view (except small issues which handled well by Manisha), and a very friendly and skilled driver (Gian and Ravi Thakur made our journey smooth and intresting.

Nihad Ubaid

Chandigarh

Nihad's 5 days trip to Shimla

Overall had a good experience. Few issues faced which kind of made the experience average at the end. 1) Had issue with check out from the second hotel where they informed me that payment was not made. I had to coordinate with the travels at 6 AM to get this resolved (luckily one of the representa

tives picked up the call. The main contact did not pick up the call). This was not a pleasant experience as we were trying to check out fast to make sure we are able to reach airport on time for our flight. 2) Cab driver was great in general but was really hesitant to switch on AC and even switched on, he was keeping it at very low speed which did not help at all.
