Venkatesh Mandir (Devesthan) is a Hindu mandir located in Kathmandu, Nepal at Battisputali (Gaushala). It resembles the lord Balaji of India. History Legend states that in 1898 C.E. Garudhwaj Ramanuja Dasi and her husband Govindacharya made a pilgrimage to Tirumala Venkateswara Temple in India, returning to Nepal with a small statue of Balaji (also known as Venkateswara, a manifestation of the Hindu Vishnu). Temple management also states that other statues were also brought back from other visits, that the earlier temple has been demolished, that a new building is being constructed at the same site and that the statues will be installed in the new temple upon completion. |
