Palanchok Bhagawati Temple, Hindu temple in Sathighar Bhagawati, Nepal
The temple sits at 1,007 meters elevation on Palanchowk hill, featuring a three-foot black stone idol of Goddess Bhagawati within its pagoda structure.
The temple's establishment dates to King Manadeva's reign, following his vision that guided the relocation of the deity's idol from Buchhakot to this location.

Located 42 kilometers from Kathmandu, visitors can reach the temple via Arniko Highway, followed by a local road leading to the hilltop location.
