Te Bahal, Buddhist monastery in Kathmandu, Nepal.
Te Bahal spans across a large courtyard containing multiple temples, shrines, and a central stupa surrounded by four smaller religious structures.
The monastery dates back to the 5th century Licchavi period, with many buildings constructed during the Malla era and renovated between 2016 and 2017.
The main temple houses the deity Sankata, drawing both Hindu and Buddhist devotees who pray for protection against misfortune and illness.
Visitors can access Te Bahal through a small passage opposite a Ganesh Shrine near the Nepal Airlines offices in central Kathmandu.
The complex features two separate baha shrines, indicating the merging of two original monasteries: Te Bahal and Bandhudatta Bahal into one structure.
