fulfilling”.

Manakamana as explained by ancient history on 17th century is a reincarnation of the then queen of Gorkha. The queen possessed divine powers-a fact known only to Lakhan Thapa, her devotee.

There was a discourse about the goddess in the temple’s courtyard. Hearing the glory of the goddess’s power, the king was very impressed and thought of bringing an idol of the goddess from there. After coming back, he sent his trusted people to Vindhyachal mountain to bring the idol of the goddess.
When the people who went to take the idol reached the Vindhyachal Mountain and told the king’s message to the priest, the priest told them that they had no such statues. During the same night, the priest had a dream in which he was ordered to provide the statue at any cost to the people from Kaski. The statue, which was brought in a doli, was placed in the place where the statue is currently installed in

The temple is situated on a high mountain range and is visited during fair weather. During the festival of Janai Purnima, Hindu devotees gather here to pay homage to lord Muktinath. The visitors get lodging facilities at Dharmasala and Maharani Pouwa. Another
famous temple of Jwaladevi, the goddess of flame, is situated about hundred meters south of Muktinath. It is a great example to our world of a sacred place shared in harmony by devotees of two world religions. The traditional caretakers of the place are the Muktinath Nuns. Nepal has always been known as “a land of piety” and “the dwelling of the Gods” and many aspects of primordial history, religion, culture and tradition as well as legends and myths emanate
from the awesome Himalayas. A trek with a belief that one will attain the ultimate nirvana in Muktinath – Lord of Salvation, is undoubtedly the most “divine-trek” for all the people.

The Muktinath Temple was consecrated in 1815 A.D by Queen Subarna Prabha, the wife of Rana Bahadur Shah. This temple is built in a Tibetan pagoda style and contains huge brass idols of Lord Vishnu, Shiva, Brahma and Kali. The local name for Muktinath is Chumig Gyatsa. Both Hindus and Buddhists have visited Muktinath – Chumig Gyatsa for hundreds of years and this place reflects a unique blend of Hinduism and Buddhism. Muktinath geographically speaking is a high valley located on the Mustang Bhote region.  The views from Muktinath are enchanting as golden rays of the rising and setting sun are reflected by the Nilgiri and Dhaulagiri ranges. The entire panorama is filled with a golden glittering light which forms a dramatic contrast with the barren and dry mountains of the surrounding Kali Gandaki Valley. Muktinath is one of the five most important pilgrimage sites for Hindus. A trip to Muktinath is often called as a 2 in 1 trip. For western tourists, a trip to Muktinath not only provides a trek of a lifetime amidst the barren valley and
lofty Himalayan Ranges, but also gives them an opportunity to see the homogeneity of Hinduism and Buddhists in the same place. Muktinath actually lies along the route of the Annapurna circuit trek. The winding road to Muktinath passes through magnificent forests of oak and rhododendron that line the Southern foothills of the trail. In January and February these areas may be covered in snow but during March and April there will be a blaze of red rhododendron
flowers here.  In Muktinath, the original fire burns in water in harmony and the rocks and soils are as they were in the beginning of time. We collect these and bring them back so that we may insert them in our chortens and in the soil of the fields to delay deterioration, restoring to some extent the qualities of the good age.
