For lovers of solitude,
a short climb, early in the morning to the summit of Jakhoo at a height
of 2,438.4 metres and two kilometers (1 1/4) east of the town, towering
over Shimla, ewards the climber with the glorious spectacle of the sun
rising over the eternal snows and a panoramic view of Shimla spreadeagled
below. Here, too, is an old temple dedicated to the god Hanuman, now also
the home of countless playful monkeys waiting hopefully to be fed by all
the visitors. |
