Sheshnarayan Temple, Hindu temple in Kathmandu District, Nepal.

The Sheshnarayan Temple features traditional Nepali architectural elements with pagoda-style structures and detailed stone carvings depicting religious symbols and deities.

The temple establishment dates back to the Licchavi period when King Vishnugupta ordered the construction of four Narayana temples to protect Kathmandu Valley.

Devotees perform daily rituals and offerings to Lord Vishnu at the temple, following centuries-old traditions that reflect deep-rooted Hindu practices.

Located 20 kilometers southwest of Kathmandu, the temple complex includes meditation areas and remains accessible through local transportation from the city center.

This temple forms part of the four cardinal Narayana temples positioned strategically on hilltops surrounding Kathmandu Valley for spiritual protection.
