The village has a religious Buddhist monastery, Shesnarayan temple. It also has Bajra Yogini temple, Gorakhnath temple, and Guru Padmasambhava meditation cave.

Recently numerous Buddhist monasteries have been built in the area. you can join the other pilgrims who are doing the clock-wise pilgrimage circuit (parikrama in Nepalese, kora in Tibetan)

This is the black female God temple and it refers to the temple´s position in a spectacular river gorge of the Black female goddess of the south.

The Kali God loves the blood so people drag a menagerie of chickens, goats, sheep, pigs, and even buffaloes occasionally to be beheaded and transformed into cuts of meat by the temple priest, who are also a skilled butcher. Once the sacrifice is made, the meat goes in the pot; the pilgrims bring all the ingredients to make barbeque and feast themselves under the shade of trees. Saturday is the big sacrificial day, and also blood flows freely on Tuesday.

Our Nepal photography tour begins with, Namo Buddha, a magnificent Buddhist monastery that lies 38 km east of Kathmandu with 1,750 meters. Namo Buddha is one of the most important pilgrim sites in the valley, particularly for Tibetan Buddhists. The temple tells about Gautam Buddha’s story, Buddha gave up his body out of compassion for a starving tigress and her cubs. This holy land is a very relaxing and comfortable place.

Thrangu Rinpoche design Namo Buddha temple as a representation of the three yanas or path; it is beautiful, elegant, and filled with symbolic meaning as befits this holy Buddhist pilgrimage place. On Return visit Bhaktapur (Bhaktapur tour is famous for seeing this thing Pottery and weaving are its major traditional industries.

Sometimes it’s best to take a break from temples and sit back and watch the unchanging rituals of daily life: The laying out of grain to dry in the sun, families collecting water or washing under communal taps, children playing simple games, dyed yarns flapping in the breeze or potters at work throwing clay are the major attraction of this site.

Though a massive earthquake of 1934 destroyed many temples, battles (monastery courtyards), and residences, the city is still a living proof of the highest craft standards in this part of the world. You can also enjoy seeing the narrow brick-paved streets, many alleys will show hidden shrines and statues)
