Jaganath (Krishna) Temple, Kathmandu , Nepal. Edit
Detail InformationEdit
Jaganath (Krishna) Temple inside there are images of Krishna and two Goddesses, which, according to a Sanskrit inscription, are modelled on the king and his two wives. The temple’s Newari inscription neglects to mention the king’s little act of vanity. The temple is a favourite of sadhus who pose (and expect to be paid) for photos here.
