Galtaji

Galtaji is an ancient Jaipur pilgrimage site. The attractive place, set amongst low hills and filled with locals and tourists alike, has temples, pavilions, and holy kunds (natural springs and water tanks). Visitors to Galtaji will come across the Ramgopalji temple complex, also known as the Monkey temple (Galwar Bagh). It gets its name from the huge number of monkeys who live there.

The lush greenery and chattering monkeys add to the area's appeal. Surya Mandir, a small temple dedicated to the sun god, sits atop the hill. The temple, built by Diwan Kriparam, can be seen from anywhere in the district.
