Monkey Temple, also known as Galta Ji Temple, is a popular Hindu pilgrimage site located in the city of Jaipur in Rajasthan, India. The temple is situated amidst the Aravalli Hills and is surrounded by lush greenery, making it a serene and peaceful place to visit.
The temple complex consists of several temples, shrines, and holy water tanks, which are believed to have healing properties. The main temple is dedicated to Lord Hanuman, the monkey god, and is adorned with intricate carvings and paintings. The temple is also home to a large population of monkeys, who are considered sacred and are fed by the devotees.
The temple is believed to have been built in the 18th century by Diwan Rao Kriparam, a courtier of the Jaipur royal family. The temple complex is spread over a vast area and is divided into several sections, each with its own unique features. The main attraction of the temple is the natural spring, which flows into several tanks and is considered holy by the devotees.
The temple is a popular destination for tourists and locals alike, who come to seek blessings and offer prayers. The temple is especially crowded during the festival of Makar Sankranti, when thousands of devotees take a dip in the holy water tanks.
Visitors to the temple are advised to be cautious of the monkeys, who can be mischievous and may snatch food or belongings. It is also recommended to dress modestly and remove footwear before entering the temple premises.
Overall, Monkey Temple is a must-visit destination for anyone visiting Jaipur, offering a unique blend of spirituality, history, and natural beauty.
