It is situated in the Aravalli hills and is surrounded by dense stately trees and shrubs. This remarkable building is decorated with painted walls, rounded roofs and pillars. Apart from the kunds, this prehistoric Hindu pilgrimage spot also houses the shrines of Lord Rama, Lord Krishna and Lord Hanuman within the temple. One of the main tourist places in Jaipur, the temple complex has natural fresh water springs and seven sacred 'kunds' or water tanks. Among these kunds, the 'false kund', is the most sacred and is believed to never dry up. Pure and clear water flows into the ponds from 'Gaumukh', a rock shaped like a cow's head.
This magnificent temple is designed to look more like a grand palace or 'haveli' than a traditional temple. Galta Bandar Temple has a beautiful and gorgeous landscape with rich green vegetation and a splendid view of Jaipur city. The temple is known for the many tribes of monkeys that are found here and religious hymns and chants, along with the natural setting, provide a peaceful atmosphere to the tourists.
