Jakhu, Shimla / 108 ft = Highest Idol in World...

Good morning. I am on the way to Jakhu Temple in Shimla.
There are two ways we can get up to the hill. Eighther you avail this rope way or reach by car. However journey by rope can be better, for it would take less time and would be comfortable.
Set amidst the lush green background of the Shivalik hill ranges, this is the highest point in Shimla.
The Jakhu Temple is an ancient site dedicated to the Hindu god - Hanuman. Jakhu Temple has the world's largest Hanuman statue, which is visible from most parts of Shimla.
Overlooking the sister town of Sanjauli, the amazing setting of Jakhoo Temple in the thick of beautiful Deodar trees is complemented with an abundant monkey population in and around the Jakhoo Hill area.

It is located approximately 2 kilometres from the Ridge in Shimla's centre and the journey is about 30 minutes.
According to the legend that surrounds Jakhu Temple, Lord Hanuman stopped at this spot to take some rest before resuming his search for the Sanjeevani Booti to revive Lord Lakshman.
Sometimes, the monkeys here can be quite a hassle to deal with and could snatch anything you might to be carrying or wearing. So, beware of your surroundings to keep them away. They also generously accept eatables given to them by people!
Time to go from here. Overall it was a good feeling experiece.
This is still a better feeling here in the cabin as we can have views of the panoramic part of the Northen part of Shimla.
Do member the approaching white and red buiding which is the gateway to the Jakho Hill.
You can see the Jakho Hill and the Hanuman Statue right from the Ridge, the most popular place in Shimla...
