Satyawati temple

The Satyawati Temple stands at 1,400 meters elevation near a sacred lake, with another smaller water body called Budhi Satyawati in its vicinity.

The temple has maintained its religious significance through generations, drawing 300,000 pilgrims annually from Nepal and India to its mountainous location.

During the annual festival in October-November, pilgrims circle the temple lake three times while loudly expressing their wishes to the goddess Satyawati.

Visitors reach the temple through walking trails that start from the Siddhartha Highway, located 30 kilometers south of Tansen and 19 kilometers north of Butwal.

Local traditions specify that devotees must shout their prayers because the goddess has difficulty hearing, making the worship practices distinct from other Hindu temples.
