The river Chambal runs down from a gorge of an altitude of around five hundred meters. On either side of the gorge lies the Gigantic Mountains. The winds blowing seem to be chanting the stotras of Lord Shiva in your ears to arouse the devotee in you with the feeling of true devotion. Garadia Mahadev Temple in Kota lies on one among the cliffs. The rituals are performed by an area priest who generally stays within the shrine till around 5:30 pm.

 

Late nights aren't recommended. The place is a picture-perfect sort of a painting made by God himself. You’ll actually realize the bliss of solitude by sitting here for some time. The place also serves as a great picnic spot for several people. The most important tributary of Yamuna, river Chambal is understood for being the abode of the many water species. Sitting on a cliff you'll catch a glimpse of the crocodiles, turtles, etc.

 

Things to do

 

At the top of the road is an open space, where you can park your car. The point of view of Garadia Mahadev Mandir is simply opposite the parking lot. You don’t need to walk to the point of view of Garadia Mahadev temple, Kota.

 

To go to Garadia Mahadev temple, you first have to walk for a couple of meters on flat stones then have to climb down a flight of stairs. From there, climb down another flight of narrow stairs and reach the temple.

 

The temple is extremely small. Next, to the temple, a little water stream coming down from a hole in stones and nobody can identify or guess its location. Its water is lukewarm even in the month of December.

 

Inside of the temple, there is nothing else to try so you can simply just come up to the point, which is sure to mesmerize you. It is an honest place for a picnic but it is often risky because there are many monkeys and Langurs. The smell of food can attract them.

 

Otherwise, Langoors and monkeys are quiet & peaceful. They do not run towards people because the monkeys of Jhakhu temple neutralize Shimla.
