There is the group of temples (more than 800) above Shatrunjaya Mountain. Every day many pilgrims, saints, etc. come and go up the stairs (one-sided 3700 ) in their own way.

It takes about 2 hours to go up the stairs and an hour to come down. If someone wants to hire the porters, they can hire them too. The porters carry the guest with the help of the palanquin.

• The porters (group of 4 people) carry the guest with the help of the litter. They take about 50-60 euros and also expect the tip at the end (same as the Indians). The porters also take the break between going up the stairs. During this time, the guest can walk up some stairs himself. But yes, in this way you can conveniently and timely see the main temple. * But yeah, it’s not the must to let yourself carry.
