Goddess Manakamana has since long the reputation as " The wish fulfilling goddess". Thousands of devotees visit the shrine with a strong belief that the goddess will fulfill their wishes.
The shrine is located 6 kilometers north of Mugling on the Kathmandu-Pokhara Highway. This is situated on a prominent ridge (1302m) overlooking the river valleys of Trishuli to the south and Marshyangdi to the west. From here one can see deep valleys, terraced fields and the snow range of Manaslu-Himalchuli and the Annapurna Himal. The spectacular views are truly worth the trip.
The cable cars cover the 2.8-km stretch from Sheres along the highway right up to the temple in less than 10 minutes. Each car has capacity of 6 passengers.
Before the construction of the cable car line, it was possible to reach the temple by 4-5 hours steep hiking.
The cable car trip, not only brings to the temple, but offers spectacular views of Trishuli River Valley and stunning views of Himalayas towards north.
While you are on the way to Chitwan or Pokhra or on return, you can stop in Kurintar and spare one hour for this breathtaking opportunity. |
