Neemach Mata Temple
Udaipur is valued as one of the most beautiful places in the world today and to evidence it Neemach Mataji is the best place as people who have experienced it call it a paradise. This temple of Udaipur has become an attraction over the last few years. Some people visit the temple twice a day. I usually don’t visit temples situated on heights because of not to be discussed reasons. But, this time I visited the temple and thought to share my experience with you all.
Neemach Mataji is a temple located near Fateh Sagar. It is believed to be built in the year 1652-1680. It is also believed that Shree Nimcha Mata (also known as Ambaji) is the clan Goddess of the Royal family of the Maharanas. This stone idol of the Goddess is 56 inches in height and 23 inches in width. The offer idol of Lord Ganesh is 22.1 inches high and 12.1 inches wide. Outside the inner temple is a Hawan Kund for the performance of Yojna.
One has to climb the whopping height of 850 meters to reach Neemach Mata Temple. The temple has both stairs and footways to walk up. One can have a panoramic view of the whole city and its lakes from the temple while climbing. The walk to the temple is pollution-free as no vehicles can enter the outer limit of the hill. The entire way is covered with natural mountain forest and luxuriant greenery which makes the hard journey look easy.
