Situated on the Aravalli Hills near Nahargarh Fort, Garh Ganesh Temple is one of Jaipur’s most revered shrines dedicated to Lord Ganesha. Built by Maharaja Sawai Jai Singh I before the foundation of Jaipur city, this temple holds deep historical and spiritual significance. What makes it unique is that the idol of Lord Ganesha is depicted without his trunk, worshipped as “Purushakriti” or child form of Ganesha. Devotees climb a series of steps to reach the temple and are rewarded with a breathtaking panoramic view of Jaipur city. The annual Ganesh Chaturthi fair here draws thousands of visitors and devotees, making it a must-visit spiritual destination.
