The existence of this temple dates back to 400 AD and it is one of the most scared temples for Lord Shiva in the world.

This temple is a UNESCO World Heritage Site. The temple is built in pagoda style and the two level roofs are copper with gold carvings. Also, the temple has a gold apex which is a representation of religious thought. Only Hindus are allowed inside the temple, and for Hindus, to be cremated at Pashupatinath means a direct passage to heaven. Non Hindu’s can view the temple from the opposite banks of the river.
