Water tank in Galtaji temple
Let me tell you that Ghalji Temple is most religious and revered for its natural water springs. The water circulates automatically in the premises of this temple and gets collected in tanks. The most important thing about this natural waterfall is that its water never dries, which surprises the tourists who come here. Along with this, Galta Kund is the holiest of the seven tanks in the temple complex. Taking a dip in this sacred tank on the special occasion of the Makar Sankranti festival every year is considered very auspicious.
Best time to visit Galtaji Temple
The best time to visit Galtaji Temple is during the months of February-March and October-December as the weather is very pleasant during that time. Traveling to this place during summer can be very inconvenient, so it is better to avoid visiting here during this season. Every year at the time of the Makar Sankranti festival in January, there is a huge crowd of Galtaji Temple tourists and pilgrims to take a dip in the holy water of Kund. If you want to see the fascinating view of the monkeys coming to the temple pools for bathing, then visiting the temple in the evening will be most special.
