Sankat Mochan Hanuman Temple
Sankat Mochan Hanuman Temple is a revered Hindu temple situated in Shimla, Himachal Pradesh. Dedicated primarily to Lord Hanuman, it is the second most visited Hanuman temple in Shimla after Jakhu Temple. The temple was established in 1950 by the esteemed spiritual leader Neem Karoli Baba, who meditated at the location for several days and felt inspired to build a temple there.
The temple offers a peaceful environment perfect for meditation and spiritual reflection. Besides the main idol of Lord Hanuman, the temple complex also houses idols of Lord Rama, Sita, Lakshmana, and Lord Ganesha in South Indian architectural style.
One of the unique aspects of the temple is its picturesque location on the Kalka-Shimla highway, offering stunning views of Shimla city and the surrounding valley. The temple is particularly busy on Sundays, when a large Bhandara (community feast) is organized for devotees.
