Siddha cave, Limestone cave in Bandipur, Nepal
The cave extends 430 meters into the mountain with a height of 50 meters, featuring multiple chambers filled with natural rock formations.
Discovered in 1988 by local hikers, the cave formations date back approximately 3,500 years, marking it as a significant geological structure in South Asia.
A resident Sadhu maintains a meditation space near the entrance, continuing the tradition of spiritual practices within natural formations in Nepal.
Visitors can access the cave through a 50-minute downhill trail from Bandipur or via stairs from Bimalnagar, with guided tours available for 200 rupees.
The limestone walls contain natural formations resembling animal shapes, including distinct patterns that form the faces of lions and elephants.
