Changunarayan: An Introduction

This temple is said to be the oldest Hindu temple still in use in the Kathmandu Valley. Built in the two-tiered pagoda style, the main shrine here is guarded on all sides by pairs of real and mythical beasts – elephants, lions, winged lions and ram-horned griffons – and its roof struts feature some amazingly intricate carvings of Tantric deities. Changu Narayan and its associated buildings were badly affected by the 2015 earthquake however; restoration of the complex is under way. #Changunarayan #VisitNepal FOLLOW US: Facebook: www.facebook.com/mathswitharjun Twitter: www.twitter.com/twitajr ... https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MO2LypB4HcY
