Situated on a small hill lock named Swayambhunath to the Northwest of the Kathmandu Valley<\/a>, the famous Swayambhunath temple is also known as the monkey Temple. This is because you will find many monkeys everywhere as soon as you arrive. It is home to thousands of resident monkeys wandering in the area without rules. When you were a child, did you ever imagine having a monkey as a pet?<\/p>\n

It is a popular tourist destination that receives pilgrims and tourists from all over the world. As per mythology, this structure was the source of the glory of this destination. In this blog, we will explore Swayambhunath Stupa<\/strong> to learn more about it.<\/p>\n
