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.

    Gunja's 4 days trip to Shimla

    Our Himachal vacation turned out to be a wonderful experience because of their proper planning and coordination. The hotels were well chosen, the vehicle was clean and the driver was courteous. It felt like a well thought out trip rather than a rushed package tour.

    Narun Sumant

    Narun's 5 days trip to Shimla

    Pros: 1. The cost was well worth it. 2. Agent Sahil was incredibly friendly and responsive, even calling twice during the entire five-day journey just to know how it's going. 3. Driver Jitendra was excellent. He maintained a safe speed limit and was considerate, not bothering us by calling or urging
    us to visit places urgently. The itinerary was planned according to time, and he didn’t constantly nag us to return. Cons: 1. Grace Spa and Resort was good, but by seeing online, I had asked for the same 4-star resort, which was supposed to have Billiards, Spa, and indoor games. But they said the billiards table has broken, and the spa will start soon. They had only carrom for now. Worst: In other places, we had good interactions for activities, but in Solang Valley “Shop No 18”, we had the worst experience. where we paid for required Snow activities, and rented clothes, shoes, etc. The shopkeeper said the photographer's cost would be separate, which was normal. After crossing Atul Tunnel, we reached the activities spot, and the photographer who was linked to shop no 18 came and said per photo so and so, and I specifically asked if there was any minimum photo or if we could select whichever is good. He said minimum is 30 photos per 40rs for which we agreed later the activities started, we enjoying and finally, he said 178 is there out of which some will be continues like burst photos and same poses 5-7 for that he said buy all the photos and pay 6k. We were not ok, and after a lot of arguing, we started selecting photos as most of them were out of focus, a few were burst pics. Once selecting it came down to 52 photos and 10 Videos. Now he started raising his voice, saying 52 is too low, and for videos we should pay 500/video. So, for 10-15 sec videos only, it was going to 5k. We said it more than the activities themselves, for he arrogantly said I am not giving a single video for you and deleted the video in front of me, and went off. Later Driver talked to the shop owner for long hours and asked for 52 photos. But the owner is on another level, he is saying pay first, and later will think of sending photos. I was already scammed, so I said that once I received the photos either to my phone or the driver’s phone, I wouldn’t pay. As I will be with the driver for another 2 more days. Finally, around 8 pm, after wasting more than 4 hours, he finally sent. Worst experience that day. Did not get a single video and paid for 52 photos, whatever the cost, the shop owner said. Please avoid Shop No 18. Being a tourist, we should feel safe and trusted at places, but this kind of experience on my birthday remains a bad memory in my mind for a long time.
