Jeen Mata Mandir — An Ancient Shakti Peeth near Khatu
Jeen Mata is a centuries-old temple dedicated to the goddess Jeen (a form of Shakti/Durga), set amid the rugged Aravalli hills of Sikar district. It sits just 26 km from Khatu Shyam Ji — about a 35-minute drive — making it a natural, easy add-on to your Khatu darshan.
Easy Add-on from Khatu Shyam Ji
Because it is so close, most pilgrims visit Jeen Mata the same day as Khatu Shyam Ji. Simply book a Khatu → Jeen Mata taxi for a comfortable half-day round trip, or add it to a wider Shekhawati darshan tour.
Navratri & Special Days
The temple draws huge crowds during Navratri, when the hillside comes alive with devotional fervour. Reach early morning to avoid queues, then continue to the nearby Sikar town or return to Khatu.
Where to Stay
Accommodation right at Jeen Mata is limited, so most travellers stay near the Khatu temple or Ringas and visit on a day trip — see hotels & dharamshalas to plan your stay.
