This place of religious importance is located in the town of Salasar in Rajasthan. The temple is dedicated to Lord Hanuman who is also known by the name Balaji. The temple is constructed in white marble stone. The prayer hall of the temple and the Sanctum is marvelously designed in the work of silver and gold. The temple is also called the Salasar Dham which is the Place of Power. It attracts numerous devotees from all parts of the country and is a well known tourist spot as well.

It is believed that visiting this temple and offering prayers has resulted in many miracles and fulfillment of wishes of the worshippers. Tying of coconut is a very famous ritual of this temple and it is believed to make wishes of the devotees come true. Another ritual performed here is the Savamani where 50 kg of food is offered by the devotee to Lord Balaji.

History of the Attraction

There is an interesting story behind the Salasar Balaji temple. It is said that when a farmer was ploughing his fields, he found the idol of Lord Hanuman. His wife cleaned the idol and worshipped Lord Hanuman as Balaji. There was a nearby village named Asota where Balaji came in the dreams of Thakur of the village and ordered him to send the idol of Hanuman to Salasar. It is believed that Lord Balaji had also appeared in the dreams of a devotee saying him the same thing. After this incident, the idol of Balaji was brought to Salasar which gave rise to this temple that we see today.
