The Paspatina Temple is Nepal's largest Hindu temple, located about five kilometers east of the center of Kathmandu, built in the 5th century AD, outside the temple on the Bagmaty River, there are six stone crematoria, Nepali Hindus held open-air cremation places, Therefore, the temple is also commonly known as the burnt temple. The temple covers a large area, and the main temple is surrounded by many small temples, forming a complex, which is very elegant and gorgeous. The cremation ceremony was held every day, and the white-clothed bodies were removed from the morgue by the river and put on the crematorium, set up firewood, and surrounded by people who were buried, and finally pushed the leftover ashes and residues into the Ganges River, passing by. We were in the dry season when the river broke down and there were many children in the river who went to the water to find jewelry worn by the dead. Visitors can stand on the bridge or sit on the other side to watch.

    After visiting my trekking in the Himalayas I headed to Bouddhanath Stupa in Kathmandu, the biggest Buddhist temple in Nepal. After that it was time for another must-visit spot: the impressive Pashupatinath temple, also in Kathmandu. Pashupatinath is the biggest and holiest Hindu temple in Nepal, situated on the banks of the Bagmati river. Similar to the Ganges in India, here at Pashupatinath, dead bodies are being burned. It's always very impressive to see and makes you think about life over and over again. It feels good to be there, though.

    Nice place to visit when you are in Kathmandu. Its shines Nepal culture and harmony among people. One of the busiest place with Mass Gathering. Totally a fresh environment where you can express yourself.

    Nepal's largest and one of the four major Hindu monasteries in the world, Paspatina, listened to Richard tell me about the history of Hinduism, the birth, the marriage, the death, the rebirth, watching these families burn the bodies of the dead, and re-enlightened me. But the law of life, I hope that after 13 days their souls will be reborn, and I hope that everyone will have the opportunity to visit Hindu temples and respect faith and culture, and the mysterious Hinduism, and it will be fascinating.

    Pashupatinath Temple is one of the four most important religious sites in Asia. For Hindus who worship Shiva, the place to burn before thrown into the river 😱
