Description:
10 kms east of Jaipur on the road to Agra lays a succession of pavilions and temples and pools hidden in a gorge. Centuries ago a sage named Galva performed his penance here. A sun temple stands on a nearby summit. There are natural springs having curative properties and are thronged by pilgrims.
The Galta temple is financially supported by the Birla family. In this complex there are temples on the right and the left reverberating heavy sound of drums and bells. Behind these temples are the tanks known as Kund.
