Galtaji Temple (Monkey Temple) In the Aravalli Hills, about 10 km east of Jaipur, is the historic Hindu pilgrimage site known as Galtaji. The complex is made up of a number of temples, but it is best renowned for its stunningly green sacred kunds (tanks), where pilgrims bathe. High in the highlands, natural springs supply water to the tanks or pools. It was explained to us that no one should visit after nightfall since then the big cats come down to drink (I'm not sure which ones; perhaps pumas and tigers? hmm…). On the one hand, it was heartbreaking to see that the monkeys were playing with plastic and other waste that we people are responsible for in the pool area, which was surrounded by towering mountains on all sides.
