No entry fee. It is located on the back of river Bagmati. It is believed that after the self-immolation of Sati, Shiva wandered, carrying the corpse on his shoulder. Wherever the parts of that body fell, Shakti Peeths originated. Arguably, this temple is where Sati's knowledge (Guhya) fell and hence originated the Guhyeshwari Shakti Peeth. Only Hindus are allowed. You can take photos at only selected places. Never try to take a photo from the front side.

This is Guhyeshwari Shaktipeeth, one of the shaktipeeth out of 51. This shaktipeeth was created due to mata's upper lip dropped here. You can reach here by small treak or car/bike can drop you few steps before temple entrance. Temple was very quiet and you can feel the vibes. There is a huge baniyan tree outside temple which is very huge. If you do short treak then you can see top view of Pashupatinath temple and surrounding area. There are no parking fees for vehicle. It is located in highly crowded area so better be careful if you are driving.

It's holy! Truly divine! By the river bank of bagmati river, being along with Lord Pashupatinath temple premises, the true divinity is what we experienced while being here! Hindu and love for Lord Shiva, then this holy Goddess temple is the must to visit! 😇

Dint plan but it seemed a very auspicious day. Multiple weddings taking place in the court yard of the temple. Loved the atmosphere.

When you visit kathmandu then you also visit this temple.This temple and pasupati nath temple are some distance. Around 2KM

Most powerful Shakti peeth located in heart of Kathmandu. Amma goddess will give perfect perfect blessings to her devotees.

It is one of the best place nearly to pashupatinath. Guhyeshwari Temple (Nepali: गुह्येश्वरी मन्दिर), also spelled Guheswari or Guhjeshwari, is one of the revered holy temples in Kathmandu, Nepal. This temple is dedicated to Guhyeshwari or Adi Shakti. The temple is also a Shakti Peetha and is about 1 km east of Pashupatinath Temple and is located on the southern bank of the Bagmati River.[1] It is said that this temple is the Shakti chair of Pashupatinath Temple. It is an important pilgrimage destination for Hindus, especially for Tantric worshipers. King Pratap Malla built this temple in the 17th century. The goddess is also called Guhyekali.The temple's name originates from the Sanskrit words Guhya (secret, hidden, or cave) and Ishwari (goddess). Literally, the name "Guhyeshwari" stands for the goddess of the cave (गुफाको ईश्वरी) and the origin of the name aligns with the Hindu legend of Sati, her self-immolation when She turns into Adishakti, the Goddess of cosmic energy, at Daksha yagna. In Lalitha Sahasranama the 707th name of the Goddess is mentioned as Guhyarupini (The uncanny form of Goddess intimates that She is beyond human perception, and the invisible location where She resides allows Her to render justice impartially. Another belief is that it is the secret 16th syllable of the Shodashi Mantra) (LS 137th verse: Sarasvati shastramayi| Guhaamba guhyaruupini||). The main stotras dedicated to goddess are: 1.Guhya Kali Sahasranama Stotra,Guhyakali. 2.Gadya Sanjeevana StotramGuhyakali. 3.Mahavajra Kavacha Stotram.

It was a fantastic trip. The road leading to the temple is beautiful and well-kept. The temple area is very clean, and there is a real feeling of positive energy in the environment. You must see the magnificent view of the city and the Bagmati river from this location. There is always a huge rush, especially in Navratri, therefore it is best to attend during the off season. It is best to go in the afternoon for a wonderful "Dharshan." We went in November month at that time there is no much crowd. If you are visiting Kathmandu (Nepal), you must pay a visit to this historic temple, which holds tremendous significance and where it is believed that your prayers will be fulfilled.

Guhyeshwari Temple is dedicated to Adi Shakti and it's one of the Shakti Peetha's🤩 It's built in 7th century AD on the bank of the river Bagmati😍🌊 It's walls are beautifully carved and photography is also permissible here🤩🌿 it's about 1km far from Pashupati Nath Temple 🙏

Guhyeshwari Temple is dedicated to Adi Shakti and it's one of the Shakti Peetha. It was built in 7th century AD on the bank of the river Bagmati Multiple weddings taking place in the court yard of the temple. When we visited River banks were decorated on the occasion of Chhath Puja..

Architecture inside the temple is marvelous. Photography not allowed inside.

I couldn't stop myself to visit here as it is one of my favorite shaktipeeth. Nay the goddess bless us all. But may be due to the rain, I found litter and dirt everywhere. The management could have cleaned it and managed it well.

In this Shaktipith back portion of maa Shakti was fallen. It is one of the Shakithipiths situated in Kathmandu, Nepal.

One of the 51 Shakti Peeth of Mata Sati. It is a very beautiful mandir and legends say it that the 'hip' of Mata Sati fell here. One can experience peace and energy at this Mandir. Known for its tantric powers the place has a feel of energy beaming out of the santom /'gabhara'. . . Located just a small walk of 850 to 900 mts. from the Lord Pashupati Nath Mandir, one must visit the Guhyeshwari Shakti Peeth Temple/Mandir. If your tour doesn't have this in its itenary, one must suggest and force the tour managers to take you to this Mandir. . .

Foreigners are not allowed, I missed the sign and walked in though, was asked to leave. But I got my glimpse of the temple really happy about it.

Jai Mata Di, Non Hindus not allowed to this temple. Very beautiful temple. Photography not allowed inside the temple premises. Kindly wear decent dresses before entering the temple. Thanks

Rituals, Cultural, holy places, environment is indeed peaceful everyone can visit the temple premises but only hindus can enter the inside the temple. I often visit this place while I am free.

When tourists go to visit the Pashupati Area, the tour starts from Tilganga or nearby to the south west corner of the area. Then crossing the Bagmati River, it ascends to the Slesmantak forest area then descends to meet the contoured Bagmati ay Guheshwori temple. This photo is from Guheswori. A sign board reads Only Hindus May Enter! So, none Hindus may continue to the river bank taking the left hand side path.

Very old beautiful temple. Need to climb a few stairs to reach the temple. The spiritual feeling here is immense. You can find people meditating or chanting mantras in the temple premises. Also beware of monkeys, although they seemed to be harmless. You can also explore a small stairway by the side which goes up to Pashupatinath temple

Guhyeshwari Shaktipeeth temple are one the 51 Shaktipeeths and it's Beautiful and Amazing. I will Recommend that please stay there for hours and ask people about the Shaktipeeth then they'll tell you interesting facts so Explore about the place then you gonna love this place. I love this

One of the first places I witnessed and it's mostly open and such a divine vibe.

Guhyeswari shakthipeet is believed and worshipped to be one of the 51 shakthipeet of Goddess Parvathi in the form of Mahakaali ie some part of the body of the goddess is sprinkled all over.. One such is here. Very important divine religious place of shakthi to be worshipped.

As I always say we have great temples in Nepal, holiest of the holiest, powerful as people have love & faith . Huge amount of money is collected daily but sadly the cleanliness of the temples I give 2 out of 10. We in general lack CIVIC SENSE.. and the areas around the temples are in dire straits. We need to educate everyone from HOME , then SCHOOL & educate our INNER SELF that CLEANLINESS is NEXT TO GODLINESS. Local government wake with your eyes wide OPEN & do SOMETHING 🍀🙏LUCKY

For a deeply devoted spiritual practitioner, it is a tragedy that this powerful energy site is banned to non-hindus (as goddess doesn't really care for these man made religious labels). Even if you do your sadhana for uears and live in India, they won't let you in. Otherwise it is a beautiful peaceful place. And people who work around the temple, the ticket counter, chia and flower stalls, are absolutely lovely to chat to (and they compassionately listen to your complaints about not being allowed in :P).

Peaceful ✌️ Soulful. Good for meditation and understanding the truth of life.

Beautiful Temple on the Bank of River Bagmati. It was Built in 7th Century A.D. Very Old Temple with Beautiful Carvings. Darsan free of cost. Photography is not allowed inside the Core of the Temple but Photography of the Temple Campus and Surrounding is Permissible

Spiritual beauty and peace Mind blowing

Good place for natural and old view along with Tample

Some snaps of Chhath Puja 2076 near the bank of Bagmati river, Guhyeshwori Temple.

Historic Temple and is famous for the wedding rituals in hindu religion and culture in Nepal.

Shaktipeeth near pashupatinath temple, one should not miss at kathmandu

Central temple for Tantrism in Kathmandu valley, this beautiful temple offers the hope and energy for their mundane tasks in people's lives. Consider the most powerful deity temple in Nepal.

It gave me spritual vive. If you are hindu you must visit it once in a Life. Literally, the name "Guhyeshwari" stands for the goddess of the cave (गुफाको ईश्वरी) and the origin of the name aligns with the Hindu legend of Sati, her self-immolation when She turns into Adishakti, the Goddess of cosmic energy, at Daksha yagna.

One out of 51 Shaktipeethas. One should remember the sacrifice of devi SATI in that Temple. Shiva means Supreme Truth. And in order to get that Supreme truth, She didnt bothered destroying her body. One of her organ fell unto that place , and hence named as mata guheshwari. which is just near to Pashupatinath temple. Jay mata SATI.

Good. Clean hindus temple. It is in bagmati adeg. Only hindus for intranc. Not photography in front of temple

Beautiful temple of what I saw but I am curious if any foreigners who demonstrate that they are a Hindu have been allowed in this temple. If a Nepalese Christian was not allowed in a church in Europe because of their skin colour it would be in the news.

So powerful temple with so much positive vibes. IT was really oldest temple just behind of the pasupatinath, highly recommended to do darshan everyone (Hindus) Note:- only Hindu can do darshan and allow to go inside the temple 🥰🕉️🙏

This shaktipeeth is open for only hindus. Hugely popular in Kathmandu.

Guhyeshari, stays on the other side of Sleshmantak forest, besides the river and along with the ever flowing queues of devotees. Pashupati visit is incomplete without bowing in this shrine - Lord Shiva and Mother Pashupati here are too kind and immensely generous. This southern bank of Bagmati river is equally important to Budhhists also, Lord Shiva and Mother Parwari from across the Himalayas (Kailash) reside here in adi form. This temple is also important for (Chudakarma and marriage ceremony). Relation built or initiated in this base goes immortal and flows continuously.

I am from India. And culture of India and Nepal is very close.Nepal is a Hindu Country. I was very happy to visit this holy place

One of the Shakti Pith of Nepal where the reproductive part or secretive part of Mother Goddess Sati fell while Mahadev Shiva was roaming around carrying the dead body of her. Inside the temple, you can see the Kalash or Vase which is worshipped as the Guiyeiswori. P.S. Taking photos inside is not allowed.
