According to legend, Lord Rama's brother Lakshmana was hurt by a lethal arrow while fighting the demon king Ravana. Lord Hanuman was traveling towards the Himalayas to obtain Sanjeevani herb in order to save his life. When Hanuman arrived in the Himalayas, he couldn't figure out which herb was the Sanjeevani. As a result, he dug up the entire mountain and flew back to Lakshmana's damaged state.
Hanuman returned to the original location of the mountain once Lakshmana was healed. For a while, he rested on top of the Jakhu hill. Hanuman's weight is reported to have leveled the top of the hill! The temple was constructed around the location where Hanuman's footsteps are said to be found. Shimla's most respected holy site, where worshippers flock in large numbers to pray.
