HANUMAN
DHOKA
A
beautiful image of Hanuman with a regal parasol above, installed on a four and a
half high pedestal greets the visitors and wrings veneration. The statue of Lord
Narasimha lies here and he acts as the kshetra palaka. There is a strange belief
that the newly weds, when they visit this temple and worship the deity, they
will be blessed with noble children. There are many idols, all but from the
Hindu pantheon and are found adorning many niches. Amongst them, Bishwarup
Bahariava - tantric deity is worth-seeing. This temple is the most visit-worthy
due to several accounts from hoary legends. And for Nepalis it is a miss not
temple of great significance.
