This temple is the most sacred among Buddhist pilgrimage sites for Nepali Buddhism and also the second for the followers of Tibetan Buddhism. There was a big stupa with eyes in the center of the courtyard. Some men were relaxing around it. A tranquil sight spread in front of me.

Not only worshipers but also the locals visit this temple. So I also saw many people who didn't pray. This place seemed to function also as a recreation area.
