Bhairabi Temple, Hindu temple in Bidur, Nepal

The Bhairabi Temple features pagoda architecture with traditional brick walls, wooden supports, and a copper roof near the Trishuli Gandaki River.

The temple construction dates to 1760, during the reign of Nepal's first king Prithvi Narayan Shah, with significant additions by Bahadur Shah in 1793.

Metal and stone lion pairs guard the temple entrance, while the interior contains sculptures of deities and Aasthamatrika, representing Hindu religious traditions.

The temple underwent complete restoration following damage from the 2015 Nepal earthquake, with repairs finished in August 2020.

The temple's main priest, known as Dhami, inherits the position through family lineage and requires royal permission to cross nearby rivers.
