Temple of Pashupatinath
Pashupatinath Temple, which is situated in Kathmandu, Nepal, is purportedly a Hindu temple devoted to Lord Shiva. In 1979, this temple was included to the list of World Heritage Sites. As one of the seven monument groupings that make up the Kathmandu Valley designated by UNESCO, this “extensive Hindu temple precinct” may be a “sprawling collection of temples, ashrams, inscriptions, and images raised over the centuries along the banks of the sacred Bagmati River.”
The Boudhanath Stupa
Boudhanath in Kathmandu, Nepal, might be a stupa. The stupa, which is roughly 11 kilometers from both the town center and the northeastern suburbs of Kathmandu, is one of the biggest spherical stupas in Nepal because of its massive mandala.
Temple of Budhanilkantha
Situated 8 km north of the middle of Kathmandu city, at the base of the Shivapuri hills, is one of the largest stone statues of Vishnu, known as Jal Narayan or Budhanilkantha. The enormous sandstone statue of Lord Vishnu appears to float in a pond while he snoozes on a bed of serpents known as “Nagas.” The sanctuary was established in the fifth century.
Swyambhunath Temple
Situated on a hill in the Kathmandu Valley, to the west of Kathmandu city, is the ancient holy structure known as Swyambhunath. ‘Sublime Trees’ is how the place is known in Tibetan, referring to the diverse range of trees that can be found atop the hill.
