Well today we went to this beautiful temple which located at height of 1530 meters above sea level. One side you can see holy city Rishikesh, second side City of Dehradun and rest of the side Himalayan snow capped mountains. This is one of the 52 Shakti Peethas of goddess Sati. Please be aware of naughty monkeys so have your Prasad wrapped properly in a bag. Only two basic shops for tea and coffee along with Maggie rest Prasad shops. On the way back we had Maggie at one of the view points around 2 kms from the temple which has really good view.

A must-do experience in Rishikesh! Our car picked us up from our hotel at 5.30am and we reached the temple at the top of the mountain at 6.30am. Just in time for a lovely darshan of Kunjapuri Devi and breathtaking views of the sunrise and the snow capped Himalayas in the distance. Not too many people visiting at this early hour and the entire experience (along with hot chai) was simply divine. Steps leading to the temple are very steep so please take note for senior citizens.

the kunjapuri temple was one of the many highlights during my stay in rishikesh. It has such a magical power being there in that holy temple with the view of the mountains and himalayas. I was there for the sunrise. This is something I would very much recommend you to do. It was propably the most beautiful sunrise I have ever seen in my life
