How To Reach Jakhu Temple In Shimla
One of the most famous attractions of Shimla is the Jakhu Temple, where a 108 feet high statue of Lord Hanuman is the idol everyone comes to pray to. Wondering how to reach Jakhu Temple in Shimla?
It is pretty easy to walk to the temple since the road is paved and well maintained. In addition, there is a new ropeway in operation these days that will take you directly to the temple, from The Ridge. The Hanuman Statue at Jakhu Temple is visible from kilometres away. The two-way journey is likely to cost nearly INR 500 for a person, so make sure that you are carrying enough cash to cover the expenses for a comfortable ride. For children, the cost of the two-way journey is likely to be less, nearly INR 400 or so. Each ropeway coach will take only six travelers. One way trips, for less, are also available.
For travellers searching how to reach Jakhu Temple, the ropeway and the short uphill walk are the two most popular and convenient options.
