Jhandewalan Hanuman Temple

New Delhi


This temple is not to be missed (it's actually hard to miss) if you're in Karol Bagh. Take a short detour to see the 34m-tall Hanuman statue that soars above both the roads and the raised metro line. Getting up close, there are passageways through the mouths of demons to a series of atmospheric, deity-filled chambers.
