This Week's Top Stories About Khatu Shyamji Travel.

One day during my visit to Jaipur, we set out early in the morning to have darshan of Khatu Shyamji. The sunflower fields were at the peak of their youth. 

As soon as we reached Khatu village, a free archway stood to welcome us. 'Shri Shyam Sharanam' was inscribed on it. After entering inside this gate we traveled some more distance by taxi as we had hired Khatu taxi in Jaipur for the journey. I was eagerly waiting for a huge temple to appear. But when we entered through the back door of the temple complex, a small temple stood in front of us. 

As a result of reaching the appropriate time, we got the darshan of the idol of Khatu Shyamji. There was another temple outside the temple complex. 

This temple was of Hanumanji in the form of Singh Pol Hanuman. One feature of this temple that came to my attention was the hanging shriphal i.e. coconut. Mouli or coconuts tied with sacred red thread were hanging all around. These were coconuts of wish fulfillment. 

Devotees hang such coconuts here if there is a desire for the fulfillment of a special wish by the Lord. After fulfilling the wish, the devotees come here and open the coconut and remove it.

According to the information board outside the temple, there is no priest or temple head in this temple. The descendants of the Chauhan Rajput family maintain this temple.

The kund shown in the above picture is for men and a similar kund is also made for women. There is also a temple of Gayatri Devi in ​​this complex. Here too, hanging coconuts can be seen all around.

Here there is a statue of Lord Krishna, at whose feet the head of Barbarika narrates the story of this place.

Khatu Shyamji – Travel Tips

• Although accommodation facilities are also available in Khatu village, you can come from Jaipur (by cab or taxi) in the morning and go back after darshan.
