Sankat Mochan Hanuman Temple Shimla

Shimla, Himachal Pradesh, India

Sankat Mochan Hanuman Temple sits off the Kalka-Shimla road near Tara Devi, a short drive from Shimla. The Himachal Pradesh tourism department describes it as a public temple dedicated to Hanuman, with shrines to Rama, Shiva and Ganesha. The national tourism portal connects its origin to Neem Karoli Baba's visits and the wish to build a Hanuman temple here. The accounts disagree on the exact founding year, so this listing leaves that date open. This is a living public temple, not simply a site associated with a past visit. Check the district's visitor page for travel details and confirm current access before going.
