Place to visit in Jakhoo Temple
HIMACHAL PRADESH
Jakhoo Temple is a sacred Hindu shrine dedicated to Lord Hanuman, perched atop Jakhoo Hill, the highest point in Shimla. Surrounded by dense deodar forests, the temple offers breathtaking panoramic views of the Shivalik ranges and the town below. A towering 108-feet Hanuman statue near the temple is a major attraction and can be seen from various parts of Shimla. Steeped in mythology and believed to be linked to the Ramayana, Jakhoo Temple is a must-visit for spiritual seekers and trekkers alike. Visitors can reach the temple by a short but steep hike or via the convenient Jakhoo ropeway.
