Description

Experience Nepal's vibrant culture with Pashupatinath, a place of immense religious, cultural, and architectural importance. It's a symbol of Nepal's rich heritage and devotion to Shiva.
Pashupatinath is one of the most significant Hindu temples located in Kathmandu, Nepal. It is dedicated to Lord Pashupatinath, an incarnation of Lord Shiva, and is considered one of the holiest pilgrimage sites for Hindus worldwide.
The Pashupatinath Temple complex stretches on both banks of the Bagmati River and is a UNESCO World Heritage Site. The main temple is a pagoda-style structure with a golden roof and intricately carved silver doors. It is believed to have been built in the 5th century, although the current structure dates back to the 17th century due to several reconstructions.
The temple attracts thousands of pilgrims and devotees, especially during the Maha Shivaratri festival, which is one of the biggest annual celebrations held here. During this festival, devotees from all over Nepal and neighboring countries come to pay homage to Lord Pashupatinath and offer prayers and offerings.
Apart from the main temple, the Pashupatinath complex includes various smaller temples, ashrams, and a cremation site on the bank of the Bagmati River. The cremation site, known as Arya Ghat, is an important location for Hindu cremations, and it is believed that the deceased soul will attain moksha (liberation from the cycle of rebirth) if cremated here.
