Monkey Statue?

City: Shimla, India
Weather: 77°, foggy
Site: Jakhu Temple
Activity: Yes that statue is new

Up a pretty strenuous climb through dense fog, we found this Hindu temple known more as “monkey temple”. The massive orange monkey statue is only 3 years old and the temple itself wasn’t much to see. Plus everything was surrounded by fencing and locks to keep the mischievous monkeys out. Alex couldn’t even wear his glasses because the big males kept jumping at him to steal them.
