This stupa is popularly known as monkey temple among the visitors. The main structure of the stupa is made up of brick and clay which supports a lofty conical spire capped by a pinnacle of copper gilt. There are all seeing eyes of Lord Buddha on the four sides of the spire. It is situated at 70-m. above the level of the valley and therefore, you can see the superb views of the valley. Swoyambhunath is a mosaic of small Stupa and pagoda temples. There is the famous goddess with the shrine of Ajima called Harati Mata in front of the stupa. This temple of goddess believes to be famous in the way of tantric. Both the stupa of Lord Buddha and the temple of a goddess are surrounded by other temples and Tibetan monasteries. Being located in the top level of the valley, this place is famous for visitors for sightseeing.

Review

Andrea
"A very special trip"

 Our trekking tour with Glacier Adventure Company from mid-October to early November 2103 was very special. Starting with the reception at the airport, stay in the hotel with personal care (city tour and sightseeing, Welcome and Farewell dinner) to individual tour from Lukla to Gokyo and back. Tilak is working hard to meet the needs of its customers and personally sees to it that everything works. Our guide at the trekking tour and the porter were fully characterized and we have always felt very well looked after us and recommend him gladly.
