Hanuman Temple - Hindu temple in Jaipur - Jaipur, India

The temple is a gorgeously located near a hilly area and hence there is no access to the main shrine. You will find monkeys lingering around in enormous numbers. A wonderful experience is ensured. It seems difficult to get a cab here. Hence it is recommended to take necessary precautions. The premises were not very clean during my visit.

Amazing geography and architecture, the temple is set in between the mountains. Vibe is immaculate - people singing and playing music and swimming in the holy water. Great place to see and feed monkeys (they're Macaques). Paid entry and you can get a guide. It was also very cool here as the breeze flows between the mountains. Note that the monkeys are given so many bananas that they sometimes won't eat them. Our guide used salty chips, which the monkeys loved.

Off the beaten track and hence almost no tourists. If you want to have monkeys eating out of your hand take a packet of crisps (they like salt and vinegar). It costs extra to take a camera or phone in so leave any others in the car.

Unfortunately would not recommend. While it was lovely to see all of the monkeys roaming around, for a popular tourist attraction the temple was not well looked after and there was trash everywhere, arguably the most littered temple I've been to so far in India. Quite sad to see all of the monkeys and other animals eating the rubbish that was in the river, which ruined the entire experience. The people that work here are only there to get your money, they commented that the rubbish situation was awful but had no incentive to clear up. There were no bins anywhere either, which would have significantly helped. There is an additional charge to take pictures, which costs more than the entrance ticket and is an outright scam!. Hope someone with authority sees this comment and decides to take action. Very disappointing.

The place is very beautiful and quiet. The old buildings are renovated but still there is a scope for cleanliness. The water in the pond is clear but the around area is not that cleaned. Children take bath in it and people wash their clothes. The temple uphill is the oldest temple of Lord Hanuman. Many people come to this temple often. And there are other temples also. There is some trekking area also uphill side.

Well worth a visit if you are in Jaipur for a few days. Not just for the monkeys. We were practically the only non-Indians there when we arrived. Many of them came to bathe in what we guessed was a holy well. Lovely views from the top.

This was one of my favorite sights in Jaipur! We came early in the morning at sunrise and it was a magical experience. We were the only tourists and it was a magnificent sight. The sunrise was beautiful and the swarm of monkeys that suddenly came was cool. The monkeys were adorable and very playful. I can recommend this place to anyone that want a great experience! The cost is 50 INR for each camera you bring. Same price for foreigners as for locals. Word of warning: The locals will try to get you into their shrines there is scattered around and then pressure you for money.

Temple was probably nice some years back, but now full of dirt and rubbish. Monkeys were outside of the temple and almost none inside. At this moment I cannot recommend this place.
