Bindabasini Temple, Locally known as Bindhyabasini Mandir, this temple
dedicated to the Hindu goddess Durga (manifested as Bhagwati, a
blood-thirsty aspect of the goddess) is located near the busy Old
Bazaar of Pokhara. The white pagoda-styled building at some 3000 feet
above sea level is of great religious importance to Hindus living in
Pokhara. People throng to this temple daily and also offer sacrifices
of animals. One may also get to witness a Hindu wedding ceremony
taking place in the temple premises. |
