Shimla Temples
|
|
|
Jakhoo Hill
|
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 east of the town, towering over Shimla, rewards 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. |
| Tara Devi
|
Calm and tranquil, 11 km from the Shimla bus stand, Tara Devi has a temple dedicated to the Goddess of the Stars on top of a hill. Developed by the British, it holds the Military Dairy Farm, and the boy - scout head-quarters. At a height of 1,851 metres Tara Devi is an ideal place for the person seeking a rest from the hectic life of Shimla. |
