Places to Visit Near Khatu Shyam in 1 Day

If you are planning a trip to the divine Khatu Shyam Temple, that's already a huge spiritual goal! But here's a secret: you can easily turn that into a full day pilgrim circuit. For groups, the area around Khatu Shyam in Rajasthan has two other highly revered temples you can easily visit in a single day.

To make this trip relaxing and efficient, especially with older family members or a big group, you need a spacious and personal vehicle like a Tempo Traveller. Let your own Tempo Travellers take care of the roads, and you just focus on your darshan!

The One Day Spiritual Circuit

This is super easy to do when you hire a reliable, comfortable vehicle. Here’s the exact route we suggest for your spiritual day trip:

• First Major Stop: Jeen Mata Temple. This ancient shrine is for Goddess Durga. It's tucked away in the Aravalli Hills, about 26 to 30 km from Khatu Shyam. The drive itself is beautiful.

  
  

• Second Major Stop: Salasar Balaji Temple. This temple is highly revered and dedicated to Lord Hanuman. It's known for its unique idol, which actually has a mustache and a beard! You’ll cover about 85 to 90 km to reach this spot.

  
  

Stop 1: Shri Shyam Kund and Local Khatu Sights

Before you even leave Khatu town, take a few minutes for these local spots. People sometimes miss them in the rush! Making sure you hit all these key places is simple when you have a private vehicle that allows you to explore places in and around without any limitations. 

• Shri Shyam Kund: This is the holy pond near the main temple. People say this is where the Sheesh (the head) of Baba Shyam was found. Taking a ritual dip here before you leave is seen as very important.

  
  

• Gourishankar Temple: You’ll find this very small, respected shrine dedicated to Lord Shiva right next to the Khatu Shyam Temple. It is a quiet, peaceful place offering your prayers.

  
  

Stop 2: Jeen Mata Temple

Your first stop on the open road is the beautiful Jeen Mata Temple.

• Ancient Divinity: This temple is about 30 km from Khatu Shyam Ji. It is dedicated to Jeen Mata, who many believe is another form of Goddess Durga. The structure itself is incredibly old-around 1,000 years!

  
  

Stop 3: Salasar Balaji Temple (The Grand Finale)

Salasar Balaji is the second and final major stop on your day trip. It is about 90 km from Khatu Shyam Ji.

• Unique Darshan: This Hanuman temple is famous for having an idol with a mustache and a beard, which is very rare.

  
  

• The Drive: This is the longest part of your day. This is why having amazing seating is so important. You and your family can truly relax, knowing you have soft, push-back seats and plenty of leg space.

The Best Way to Complete the Circuit

If you are beginning this trip from Delhi NCR, it is suggested not to use local transport as it will eat up your time and is just not comfortable for groups. Using a dedicated service like Tempo Traveller on Rent in Delhi will make the journey part of the spiritual experience itself.

• Comfort is King: For those long drives, you should ask for a luxury van. A Maharaja Tempo Traveller has those individual captain seats that recline fully. After standing in temple queues, that kind of comfort is absolutely priceless.

  
  

• Group Convenience: Whether you have a small family and need a vehicle- littel larger than your Sedan, go for 9 Seater Tempo Traveller Hire in Delhi or a much bigger group, we have the exact right size vehicle. Everyone stays together, and nobody gets lost.

  
  

• Affordable Luxury: Seriously, hiring one fantastic Tempo Traveller with a professional driver (who knows this exact route!) is cheaper and much more reliable than trying to manage a few small cabs all day long.

  
  

Just focus on your prayers and the beauty of Rajasthan's spiritual heartland. We will take care of all the driving and logistics!
