Galta Kund

They call it monkey Temple. Very quite and peacefull place. There are children who are educated as brahmans. Temple is inside of mountains which I find magical. There is wonderful energy

The temple of monkeys was one of the most interesting visits in Jaipur. We were almost the only tourists that morning, which helped improving the experience. Be ready for the many monkeys and quite a lot of trash, but please do enjoy the different temples, façades, etc. You’ll find people performing diverse rituals.
And if you keep climbing towards the Sun Temple, you’ll have magnificent views of Jaipur.

Visited in December-23 last week.

PLEASE ADD GALTA JI KUND IN GOOGLE IF YOU WANT TO VISIT THIS TEMPLE AS THERE IS ONE FOR TEMPLE ON THE TOP OF THE HILL AND THE ENTRY POINT IS DIFFERENT.

I visited this temple first time in 2008. At that time this place was very Calm, Clean and beautiful. Not because of the tourist attraction proper care is not taken care of by the organization.
People are feeding the monkeys and because of many tourists, the food is too much for the monkeys so because of this waste can be seen everywhere. Even the water is not clean. Management should work on keeping this place clean as this is a tourist place of Jaipur. Water in Kund should be cleaned regularly as this is stored water.

Good Parking facility is available near by.

My visit was on 22/11/2023.

> It is a pond of water created between the rocks, and the galta temple is right next to it.
> the water is cold.
> Footwear has to be removed before you enter inside. And there's a lot of wetness on the inside floor as well.
> Nothing fancy, very simple idol of galta ji.

Would need a little investement but anyway worth the visit. Amazing views. Monkeys are calm if not provoked. We walked all the way from gate and it was a nice change to noisy city. Its all nature with great views.

Galta Kund in Jaipur, Rajasthan, is an absolute marvel that left me enchanted. This hidden gem, also known as the "Monkey Temple," boasts a mesmerizing blend of natural beauty and historical significance. Nestled amidst the scenic Aravalli Hills, Galta Kund offers breathtaking views that transport you to a world of tranquility. The sacred pool, encircled by magnificent temples and adorned with intricate carvings, exudes a serene ambiance that is truly captivating. The presence of playful monkeys adds an extra touch of charm. Whether you seek spiritual solace or simply want to revel in the beauty of nature, Galta Kund is a must-visit destination that will leave you awe-inspired.

The place is not properly managed and maintained.

I found the whole area of Galta ji is a bit dirty, poorly managed. So many clothes thrown here and there.

Disappointed to see this. The place and surroundings and views are good.
