Bhutandevi Mandir, Hindu temple in Hetauda, Nepal.

The temple stands at 1,200 meters above sea level, featuring traditional Nepali architectural elements with detailed stone carvings and multiple shrines.

Built during the Medieval period by the Sen dynasty rulers, the temple contains bells and architectural elements that date back over 100 years.

The main shrine houses a statue depicting the goddess Bhutandevi defeating Mahishasura, commemorated during the nine-day Navaratri festival celebrations.

The temple complex includes separate shrines dedicated to Radha-Krishna, Laxmi-Narayan, Shiva, and Manakamana Devi, with local guides available for information.

According to Hindu mythology, Bhutandevi is considered the sister of Hidimba, who married Bhima and gave birth to Ghatotkacha during the Mahabharata period.
