Getting to this rather ruinous but holy Hindi temple, nestled in
peaceful surroundings between two granite cliffs, is quite an adventure
but it's completely worth the effort. The temple is part of a larger
temple complex, which also has three sacred pools of water. One of the
pools has been taken over by thousands of monkeys that congregate there
to swim and bathe. They're generally friendly and love to be fed.
- Location: At the far eastern side of the city, outside Gulta Pol, near Agra Road, Jaipur. To get there, take a rickshaw, walk up the hill to the white Sun Temple, then follow the steps downhill into the gorge.
- Entry Cost: Free
- Opening Hours: Visit late afternoon, near sunset, when the monkeys flock to the temple.
