<p>Most of&nbsp;<a href="https://www.hopnepal.com/about-nepal" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank" style="color: rgb(51, 122, 183); background-color: transparent;">Nepal</a>'s treks are 'teahouse' treks, ensuring you end up&nbsp;in a simple lodge with standard rooms and a meal every evening.&nbsp;The great thing about trekking in teahouse-you&nbsp;just has to bring very little clothes. Teahouse&nbsp;<a href="https://www.hopnepal.com/blog/recommended-packing-list-for-trekking-climbing-safari-and-rafting" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank" style="color: rgb(51, 122, 183); background-color: transparent;">trekking</a>&nbsp;means sleeping in a lodge for every night of your journey.&nbsp;</p><p>Nearly all of Nepal's major trekking routes are teahouse treks, enabling the trekker to travel with the minimum kit. A teahouse may refer to large cosy, well-built lodges with common areas (as seen in the Solu Khumbu), a small bamboo hut lodged on a steep hill within the forest.</p><h2>What do you mean Teahouses?</h2><p>Tea houses differ widely from region to region, but most are simple stone and wooden buildings or cottages with a kitchen,&nbsp;a traditional dining and bathroom space, and a variety of standard bedrooms that typically have two single beds and a table.&nbsp;</p><p><img src="https://booking-manager-api.s3.eu-west-1.amazonaws.com/file-manager/page/image-teahouse.jpg">Most teahouses are designed primarily for trekkers, but some may act&nbsp;as the family's home in the more remote regions of Nepal.</p><h2>Accommodation at Teahouses in Nepal</h2><p>Expect that the rooms are simple but tidy,&nbsp;and pay marginally extra for a bathroom added.&nbsp;Your bed will come with a heavy blanket that you can use as a second sheet over your&nbsp;sleeping bag or as your main blanket for the night (feel free to double up if it's cold).&nbsp;</p><p><img src="https://booking-manager-api.s3.eu-west-1.amazonaws.com/file-manager/page/image-accomodation-teahouse.jpg">Most trekkers avoid showers throughout their trek but at&nbsp;a small fee, some tea houses provide hot bucket showers.</p><p>Note: If you are concerned about cleanliness, carry home your bed&nbsp;liner or light sleeping bag, or buy one in&nbsp;<a href="https://www.hopnepal.com/blog/top-incredible-reasons-to-visit-kathmandu-valley" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank" style="color: rgb(51, 122, 183); background-color: transparent;">Kathmandu&nbsp;</a>or&nbsp;<a href="https://www.hopnepal.com/blog/top-places-to-visit-in-pokhara" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank" style="color: rgb(51, 122, 183); background-color: transparent;">Pokhara</a>.&nbsp;Bringing a pair of earplugs is often smart,&nbsp;as the walls are tiny in most teahouses).</p><h2>Teahouse Protocols</h2><p>If your lodging and meals are provided as part of a kit walk, so besides personal snacks and drinks, all will be taken care of at your teahouse, which you usually pay for yourself.&nbsp;</p><p>The cost of your room is very inexpensive in nearly all situations (around $5/night), where the owners make much of their money from the meals and drinks. That is why you are supposed to eat all&nbsp;of your meals at the teahouse, you're staying at.</p><h2>Meals Provided at Teahouses in Nepal</h2><p>At almost all the teahouses you can find an everyday fixed menu&nbsp;of dhal bhat, momos, pasta, pizza, and other rice and noodle plates.&nbsp;</p><p><img src="https://booking-manager-api.s3.eu-west-1.amazonaws.com/file-manager/page/image-meal-teahouse.jpg">Few dishes take longer to prepare than others (such as momos),&nbsp;so it is better to see what's new and ready in advance. It is prudent to buy whatever's new&nbsp;to prevent getting sick on the hike.</p><p>Most trekkers, guides, and porters opt for dhal bhat; it's usually reliable, safe, and readily available from anywhere. Generally speaking, the further you get in&nbsp;your walk the most it pays for food.&nbsp;</p><p>For example, at Gorak Shep (located high in the mountains, near&nbsp;<a href="https://www.hopnepal.com/blog/everest-base-camp-trek-difficulty" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank" style="color: rgb(51, 122, 183); background-color: transparent;">Everest Base Camp</a>), expect to pay more for&nbsp;dhal bhat than you will in Lukla (which is easily reachable due to its airport and lower elevation).</p><h2>Wi-fi and Electricity</h2><p>Numerous tea houses in Nepal now have&nbsp;wi-fi and charging ports in the dining hall.&nbsp;Even, the pace and durability of the service is spotty, at best, and&nbsp;slows down the more users linked to it (due to the old routers).&nbsp;</p><p>The Solukhumbu tea houses have better internet connectivity (especially&nbsp;in&nbsp;<a href="https://www.hopnepal.com/blog/everything-you-need-to-know-about-namche-bazaar-gateway-to-mount-everest" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank" style="color: rgb(51, 122, 183); background-color: transparent;">Namche Bazaar</a>) but don't expect too much elsewhere in Nepal.</p>

Most of Nepal's treks are 'teahouse' treks, ensuring you end up in a simple lodge with standard rooms and a meal every evening. The great thing about trekking in teahouse-you just has to bring very little clothes. Teahouse trekking means sleeping in a lodge for every night of your journey.

<p>The <strong>Nepal Tourism Board</strong>, in addition to promoting <a href="https://www.hopnepal.com/about-nepal" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">Nepal</a>'s cultural and religious heritage sites, is taking a major initiative to encourage adventure sports in the region. The new additions in Nepal's catalogue of extreme sports are ice hockey, figure skating and skiing.</p><p>The ranges, the hills and the geographical position of <a href="https://www.hopnepal.com/blog/things-to-know-before-traveling-to-nepal" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">Nepal</a>&nbsp;have proven to be an excellent place for adventure sports.&nbsp;Hundreds of holiday-makers visit Nepal annually&nbsp;to take part in such exciting events.&nbsp;Below we're summarizing the 13&nbsp;best adventure sports experiences that Nepal will encounter.</p><h2>What do you mean by Adventure Sports?</h2><p>Extreme sports or Action sports, better known as Adventure sports, require high-risk practices. Typically this type of games&nbsp;requires advanced gears and knowledge.&nbsp;Usually,&nbsp;these activities involve&nbsp;high speed, height&nbsp;and a large amount of physical exertion.</p><p>Sports graded as severe are separate from traditional sports and regulated by factors such as snow, climate, water and mountains. Because these natural events can not be handled, they ultimately influence the result of the Action or occurrence in question.</p><p>Although the usage of the word 'competitive sport' has expanded everywhere to characterize&nbsp;a multitude of various events, it is debatable precisely what sports are deemed 'serious.'&nbsp;But most extreme sports have&nbsp;many features common to them.</p><p>The schools only allow excessive athletics for their program in physical activity. Extreme activities appear to be more isolated than other conventional, familiar games.</p><h2>13 Best Adventure Sports to be experienced in Nepal</h2><p>Below we have enlisted the 13 most popular Extreme sports in Nepal.

<p><strong>Kumari,&nbsp;</strong>or&nbsp;<strong>Kumari Devi,&nbsp;</strong>or the&nbsp;<strong>Living Goddess of Nepal</strong>, is the practice of worshipping young prepubescent girls in Hindu and Buddhist religious practices as embodiments of the sacred feminine spirit or&nbsp;<strong>Devi</strong>.&nbsp;</p><p>The Sanskrit term Kumari is derived from&nbsp;<em>Kaumarya</em>, meaning "young". Although there are many Kumaris in <a href="https://www.hopnepal.com/about-nepal" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">Nepal</a>, with some towns getting many, Kathmandu's Royal Kumari is the most popular. She resides in the <strong>Kumari Ghar</strong>, a palace near <strong>Hanuman Dhoka</strong>, <strong>Basantapur</strong>.&nbsp;</p><h2>Who is a Kumari?</h2><p>In Nepal, a Kumari is a prepubescent girl chosen from the Nepalese Newari Buddhist community's Shakya caste. Some of the Hindus in the world adore and worship the Kumari.</p><p>A Kumari is usually chosen for one day and worshipped appropriately at specific festivals such as Navaratri or Durga Puja.&nbsp;It is a prevalent phenomenon in <a href="https://www.hopnepal.com/blog/introduction-to-kathmandu" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">Kathmandu City</a>. The embodiment of Taleju is thought to be a Kumari.&nbsp;</p><p><img src="https://booking-manager-api.s3.eu-west-1.amazonaws.com/file-manager/page/image-kumari-nepali-goddess.jpg">When her first menstruation ends, the Goddess is thought to be emptying her womb. Severe disease or a significant blood loss&nbsp;arising from injuries often triggers deity impairment.</p><p>The worshipping of a young girl as the Goddess reflects the admiration of spiritual awareness that is distributed across the world.&nbsp;</p><p>Since it is believed that the ultimate deity formed this entire universe&nbsp;out of her vagina, she appears in both animate and inanimate artifacts, respectively.</p><p>Although adoration of an object represents the worship and appreciation of the supreme by inanimate objects, worship of a human person in conscious beings constitutes paying respect and acknowledgement of the same supreme.</p><p>The deity is stated to have proclaimed in the&nbsp;<strong>Shakta&nbsp;</strong>text&nbsp;<em>Devi Mahatmyam</em>, or&nbsp;<em>Chandi</em>, that she lives among all the woman living creatures of this world. The entire Kumari practice is based on that verse.</p><p>Yet when worshipping a goddess, owing to their natural modesty and chastity, only a young girl is preferred over a mature lady.</p><p>Throughout Nepal, Kumaris are worshipped only for one day; such titles are given only for the length of the ceremony, sometimes several hours.&nbsp;</p><p>One can not usually be a Kumari past the age of 16 because of menarche. A Kumari puja's fundamental goal is to understand&nbsp;the inherent divinity within a human being, often female.&nbsp;A modern Hindu aspirant recognizes humanity's inherent consciousness.</p><h2>History of The Living Goddess in Nepal</h2><p>Although Nepal's worship of a living Kumari is relatively new, dating only from the 17th century, the Kumari-Puja practice, or virgin worship, has been around for far longer.&nbsp;</p><p>There is proof of the more than 2,300 years of virgin worship taking place in Nepal. Perhaps it took place in the 6th century in Nepal.&nbsp;</p><p><img src="https://booking-manager-api.s3.eu-west-1.amazonaws.com/file-manager/page/image-kumari-tale-goddess.jpg">There is documented documentation detailing the Kumari's collection, ornamentation and worship dating back to the 13th century C.E.</p><h3>Legend behind the Kumari worship</h3><p>There are many legends that say how the Kumari's current tradition started. Nevertheless, much of the inscriptions refer to the story of <strong>King Jayaprakash Malla</strong>, the last Nepalese ruler of the Malla dynasty (12th–17th C.E.).</p><p>A king and his wife, the Goddess Taleju, entered his chambers late one night, while he played&nbsp;<strong>tripasa</strong>&nbsp;(a game of dice) according to the most famous myth.&nbsp;</p><p>Each night the Goddess came to play the game with the provision that the King refrains from informing others about their gatherings.</p><p>One night, he was accompanied into his room by the King's wife to figure out whom the King visited every day. The King's wife saw Taleju and insulted the Goddess.&nbsp;</p><p>She told the King that if he wanted to see her again or have her defend his land, he would have to look for her among the&nbsp;<strong>Ratnawali Newari&nbsp;</strong>(Shakya) people. The Goddess said that he would be incarnated among them as a little child.</p><p>King Jayaprakash Malla left the palace in pursuit of the young girl who was abducted by the ghost of Taleju, in the hope of making amends with his patroness.</p><p>Similarly, Taleju 's absence has yet another tale. Some claim that&nbsp;<strong>King Trailokya Malla&nbsp;</strong>was visited by the Goddess every evening in human form.&nbsp;</p><p>Like in many ancient tales, the King and the Goddess were playing tripasa (dice) while debating the country's situation. King Trailokya Malla, however, made sexual advances towards the Goddess Taleju one evening.&nbsp;The Goddess in anger stopped entering the palace as a result.&nbsp;</p><p>The King worshipped with sorrow and begged for her release.&nbsp;Eventually, the Goddess decided to come from the Shakya family inside the body of the virgin child.</p><p>Also today, it is believed a mother dreaming of a red serpent&nbsp;is an omen of her daughter's promotion to Royal Kumari's role.&nbsp;</p><p>And every year at the Indra Jatra festival the Nepalese King receives the blessing of the Royal Kumari. As of 2008 A.D., this practice has shifted. With the nation being&nbsp;the world's youngest republic.</p><p>A version of this and other legends calls&nbsp;<strong>King Gunkam Dev,</strong>&nbsp;<strong>King&nbsp;Jayaprakash Malla</strong>'s 12th-century predecessor, as the main character rather than Jayaprakash Malla.</p><p>A third version of the story claims a young girl was expelled from the city during King Jayaprakash Malla's reign because it was thought the Goddess Durga had abducted her.</p><p>As the queen heard about the plight of the young daughter, she grew furious. She insisted on the King taking the child and appointing her as Durga's living embodiment.</p><h2>Selection of Kumari</h2><p>Once the former Kumaru leaves the Kumari Ghar, there is a flurry of action in seeking her successor. Some also contrasted the search procedure with that used in neighbouring Tibet to identify&nbsp;<strong>Tulkus&nbsp;</strong>reincarnations, such as the&nbsp;<strong>Dalai Lama&nbsp;</strong>or the<strong>&nbsp;Panchen Lama.</strong></p><p>Five senior Buddhist Bhajracharya monks, the&nbsp;<strong>Panch Buddha</strong>, the&nbsp;<strong>Bada Guruju</strong>&nbsp;or Chief Royal Priest,&nbsp;<strong>Achajau</strong>, the Taleju priest, and the royal astrologer are in charge of the selection process.</p><p><img src="https://booking-manager-api.s3.eu-west-1.amazonaws.com/file-manager/page/image-kumari-nepal.jpg">Both the King and other religious figures who might be knowledgeable of suitable applicants are told that a search is ongoing.</p><p>The qualifying girls belong to the silver and goldsmiths from the Newar Shakya community. She should be in good condition, never spilt blood or been affected by any sickness, be without blemish and not have lost any teeth yet.</p><p>Girls who fulfil these specific qualifying criteria are tested for the battis lakshanas or thirty-two goddess perfections.</p><p>Many of those are mentioned poetically as such:</p><ul><li>body like that of a banyan tree</li><li>thighs like those of a deer</li><li>neck like that of a conch shell</li><li>chest like that of a lion</li><li>voice clear and soft like that of a duck</li><li>eyelashes like those of a cow</li></ul><p>Beyond that, her hair and eyes should be quite dark, and she should have dainty hands and feet, tiny, well-recessed sexual organs, and a series of twenty teeth.</p><p>The girl is often watched for signals of serenity and fearlessness, and her horoscope is also checked to ensure it is similar to that of the King's.&nbsp;</p><p>There must be no disputes because she will affirm the authority of her divinity to the King every year. Her background is often looked at to ensure her modesty and loyalty to the monarch.</p><p>If the priests have picked an applicant, she will undergo still more stringent testing to ensure that she still holds the attributes required to be Durga's living vessel.&nbsp;</p><p><img src="https://booking-manager-api.s3.eu-west-1.amazonaws.com/file-manager/page/image-kumaris.jpg">Her main challenge arrives during the <a href="https://www.hopnepal.com/blog/dashain-festivals-vijaya-dashami" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">Dashain</a> Hindu Festival. One hundred eight buffalos and goats are sacrificed to Goddess&nbsp;<strong>Kali&nbsp;</strong>on the&nbsp;<strong>Kalratri</strong>, or "dark moon."&nbsp;</p><p>The young applicant is brought to the Taleju temple and released into the courtyard, where candlelight illuminates the dead heads of the animals and masked people move about.</p><p>If the nominee embodies Taleju's attributes, throughout the experience, she displays no hesitation. If she fails, they send back&nbsp;another nominee to do the same thing.</p><p>The living Goddess, as a final examination, has to spend a night alone in space amid the heads of ritually killed goats and buffaloes, without fear.</p><p>The courageous leader has proved to have the serenity and&nbsp;the fearlessness that characterizes the deity who is to rule her.</p><p>The final test, after completing all the other previous trials, is that she will be able to pick out the previous Kumari's possessions from an array of items set out before her.&nbsp;</p><p>If she can do this, there is no rest of the question that she is the one she has selected. When the Kumari is picked, she must be&nbsp;cleaned so she can be a flawless Taleju vessel.&nbsp;</p><p>The priests send her to perform a sequence of hidden tantric practices to purify her body and soul from previous encounters.</p><p>After these procedures are over, Taleju joins her, and she is unveiled as the current Kumari. She's dressed and made up as a Kumari and then leaves the Taleju temple and marches across the square&nbsp;to the Kumari Ghar on a white rug, which will be her house for the remainder of her divinity.</p><h2>Life of The Living Goddess</h2><p>When the Kumari performs the rituals of tantric purification and crosses the Kumari Ghar from the temple on a white cloth to claim her throne, her life takes on a whole new form. She can leave the Kumari Ghar only on ceremonial occasions.</p><p>Her relatives would only see her, and only in a formal capacity. Her playmates are to be selected from her caste from a small pool of Newari students, usually her caretakers' babies.</p><p>She would still be clad in red and gold, holding her hair in a topknot and having the&nbsp;<strong>Agni chakshu</strong>, or "fire mark," drawn on her forehead as a sign of her extraordinary perceptional abilities.</p><p>The modern life of the Royal Kumari is drastically different from the one she was used to throughout her brief childhood.&nbsp;Although her life is now free from financial burdens, she has ritual roles to perform.</p><p>Despite not being directed, she is supposed to act as befits a goddess. During the selection cycle, she has displayed the right characteristics, and her continuing serenity is of utmost importance; it is assumed that an ill-tempered deity holds evil tidings for those who ask her.</p><p>The trip of the Kumari through <a href="https://www.hopnepal.com/blog/patan-durbar-square-lalitpur-nepal" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">Durbar Square</a> is the last moment her feet reach the earth before the deity departs from her body.&nbsp;From now on, as she travels beyond her home, she would be borne in her golden palanquin or transported.</p><p>Her feet, like all of her, are now sacred. Petitioners may contact them in the hopes of receiving relief from problems and diseases.&nbsp;</p><p>Each year as he arrives to get her blessing, the King himself must kiss them. She would never wear shoes; if she's hiding her&nbsp;feet at all, they'll be lined with red stocks.</p><p>The Kumari's influence is considered to be so powerful that it is assumed only sight of her would carry prosperity. People's masses are gathering under the Kumari window in her palace's Kumari Chowk or courtyard, hoping she'll walk through the latticed windows on the third floor and gaze down at them.</p><p>While her sporadic appearances last just a few seconds, when they do arise, the environment in the courtyard is filled with dedication and awe. In her rooms, the luckier, or better related, petitioners&nbsp;visit the Kumari, where she sits on a golden lion throne.&nbsp;</p><p>Most of those who attend her are those who suffer from blood or menstrual diseases because it is claimed that the Kumari has particular control over these illnesses. Bureaucrats and other government leaders visit her too.&nbsp;</p><p>Petitioners typically bear presents and offers of food to the Kumari, who accept them in silence. On delivery, as a gesture of dedication, she gives them her feet to hold or kiss.</p><p>The Kumari is closely monitored at these meetings, and her acts&nbsp;are viewed as forecasting the lives of the petitioners, as follows:</p><ul><li>rubbing eyes or weeping means imminent death</li><li>laughing out loud or crying implies severe illness or death</li><li>clapping of hands suggests reasons to fear the monarch</li><li>trembling means imprisonment</li><li>picking at the food offered means economic losses</li></ul><p>When the Kumari stays quiet and impassive in the crowd, she leaves her devotees exultant. It is the indication that their dreams were conferred.</p><p>A lot of men listen to the needs of the Kumari.&nbsp;Such persons are recognized as the Kumarimi, and their work is pretty rough. They have to cater to every need and wish of the Kumari while offering her guidance in her ceremonial duties.</p><p>While they can't specifically ask her to do so, they have to steer her through life.&nbsp;They are responsible for washing her, making her up and taking charge of her hair, as well as training her for her guests and official occasions.</p><p>Traditionally, the Kumari did not seek any tuition because she was generally viewed because of omniscient. Nevertheless, technology made her require education as she re-enters mortal life.</p><p>Today Kumaris can go to public schools and have&nbsp;life within the classroom that is no different from most pupils.&nbsp;</p><p>Although many kumaris, including <a href="https://www.hopnepal.com/blog/bhaktapur-durbar-square-bhaktapur-nepal" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">Bhaktapur</a>'s Kumari, attend classes, some, including <a href="https://www.hopnepal.com/blog/top-seven-places-to-visit-near-kathmandu" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">Kathmandu'</a>s principal Kumari, obtain their education from private tutors.</p><p>Similarly, she has to learn to value her small playmates. Because all desires must be given to her, she must learn to yield to her anything she might desire and submit to her desires on what games or events to perform.</p><h2>The Living Goddess in Pop Culture references</h2><ul><li>The Kumari was introduced in the CBS drama show Mrs Secretary's 25 October 2015 episode (season 2, episode 4), called "Waiting for Taleju."</li><li>The female main character was a Kumari in Nepal, in the Korean webtoon show&nbsp;<em>For the Sake of Sita</em>.</li></ul><h2>Former Kumaris of Kathmandu, Nepal</h2><p><strong>Rashmila Shakya</strong>- from 1984-1991</p><p><strong>Amita Shakya</strong>- from 1991-2001</p><p><strong>Preeti Shakya</strong>- from 2001-2008</p><p><strong>Matina Shakya</strong>- from 2008-2017</p><p><strong>Trishna Shakya</strong>- from 2017-till date</p>

The holy place is situated on top of the bank of the&nbsp;<strong>Seuti&nbsp;</strong>river, a short distance east of the Temple of&nbsp;<strong>Dantakali</strong>.</p><p><img src="https://booking-manager-api.s3.eu-west-1.amazonaws.com/file-manager/page/image-budha-subba-dharan.jpg">Historian&nbsp;<strong>Iman Singh Chemjong Limbu</strong>&nbsp;states that before and after&nbsp;<strong>King Bijaynarayan Raya&nbsp;Khebang</strong>'s reign Bijaypur was the capital of the&nbsp;<strong>Kingdom of Limbuwan</strong>&nbsp;(<strong>Pallo Kirat</strong>).</p><p>It is one of the most famous temples in eastern Nepal and is considered by many as of cultural significance.</p><p>Since 2015 BS (1958-59 CE) the temple has been handled systematically. On Saturdays, the temple is crowded with people.&nbsp;Sacrifices of rooster and pigs&nbsp;are usually produced on Saturdays.</p><h2>History of Budha Subba Temple</h2><p>According to the <a href="https://www.hopnepal.com/about-nepal/history-of-nepal" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">History</a>, it is the tomb of Morang's last Limbu King (Raya),&nbsp;<strong>Budhhi Karna Khebang,</strong>&nbsp;whose rule of&nbsp;</p><p>Bijaypur started after the assassination of&nbsp;<strong>Kamdutta Sen</strong>&nbsp;in 1762 and ended with the invasion by&nbsp;<strong>Prithvi Narayan Shah&nbsp;</strong>in 1775. Bijaypur was Morang's capital and&nbsp;east Limbuwan's political and economic centre.&nbsp;</p><p><img src="https://booking-manager-api.s3.eu-west-1.amazonaws.com/file-manager/page/image-budha-subba-temple.jpg">He was fooled into coming to meet at Bijaypur-Dharan, then killed in&nbsp;1785 by King Prithvi Narayan Shah's assassins of the Kingdom of Nepal. It is claimed that the soul of Budhhi Karna Khebang drifted around his tomb region near Bijaypur, and was reported to be a peaceful and supportive spirit.</p><p>Local Limbu people then began to worship the soul as an old king (Subba&nbsp;or Haang in the Limbu language means King) believing it would bring good luck.&nbsp;</p><h2>Myths behind Budha Subba Temple&nbsp;</h2><p>Numerous myths support the origin and foundation of the Budha Subba Temple. Some of them are:</p><h3>Budha Subba</h3><p>A Subba hunter Budha Subba and his sister used to play&nbsp;and hunt with a slingshot on the hill according to a myth.&nbsp;The tip of the bamboo tree was lost by hitting the tips&nbsp;of a bamboo tree while hunting crows, and it never grew back. Subba gave up hunting after the mistake then buried his slingshot and began meditation.&nbsp;</p><p><img src="https://booking-manager-api.s3.eu-west-1.amazonaws.com/file-manager/page/image-budha-subba-gate.jpg">It's the same place where the temple stands today, and it's believed that the small mound of mud is the place where he meditated. The temple has got its name&nbsp;from the hunter according to this legend.&nbsp;Budha Subba's sister's temple&nbsp;lies next to his.&nbsp;</p><p>Ironically, even today, there are no tips on the bamboo trees in Bijaypur hill, and&nbsp;no single crow can be found in the region, given the occasional picnics and temple offerings.</p><h3>Eklavya</h3><p>Another legend discusses the story of Ekalavya, who was in deep meditation and archery self-training by building an impression of&nbsp;<strong>Guru Dronacharya</strong>, the famous&nbsp;<strong>Kauravas&nbsp;</strong>and&nbsp;<strong>Pandavas</strong>' teacher.</p><p>Ekalavya itself is Budha Subba, it states. At this location, it is assumed that adoration and contemplation satisfy one's wishes.</p><h3>Lord Shiva and Parvati</h3><p>Many Hindus claim that <a href="https://www.hopnepal.com/blog/maha-shivaratri-in-nepal-celebration-significance-pashupatinath-temple-and-cannabis" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">Lord Shiva and Goddess Parvati </a>arrived at Vijaypur under the form of&nbsp;<strong>Thebasamang&nbsp;</strong>and&nbsp;<strong>Yumasammang</strong>, Yakthung King and Queen in the hunting cycle, where they put their bows and sat in penance.</p><p>During that time, they realized Kaliyuga's approach and disappeared immediately. In Yakthung language, that event is called Budha Subba. Shoots of bamboo sprouted from the bows without the tuft.</p><h2>Sacred Threads and Bamboo Writings in Budha Subba Temple</h2><p>There was initially a tradition of writing on bamboo trees in the area of the temple. The young men who came to visit the temple can only return by writing a name bamboo, as it is thought that writing the lovers' name would be a victory in their affection.</p><p><img src="https://booking-manager-api.s3.eu-west-1.amazonaws.com/file-manager/page/image-budha-subba-threads.jpg">But, the temple committee stopped the trend of writing names on the bamboo as the bamboo's name writings hampered the tree's growth with the increase in bamboo writings.&nbsp;</p><p>Lovers today tie sacred threads to the bamboo after adoring Budha Subba.</p>
