Narayan De:ga(Temple)

Directly opposite the  Bagh Bhairav shrine lies the Pukhusi Narayan, the Narayan Temple, at the water reservoir Dev Pukhu. In former times, these reservoirs were used for the water supply of the village community. Some others of them are located at the foot of the Kirtipur hill.  However, nowadays these reservoirs are mostly neglected with the consequence that people are often suffering from water shortage outside the monsoon season.




West to the water reservoir you can see one of the most beautiful ensembles of classical Newari houses with plenty of superbly carved Newar windows.
