Discovering Swayambhunath - Nepal
Swayambhunarth is one of the oldest and most holy shrines in Nepal. Situated a short distance west of Kathmandu, the golden stupa with its piercing painted eyes is a captivating sight. Legend connects Swayambh the self born primordial Buddha with the earliest origins of cultural life in Nepal.The eyes on the column represent the omni present God, forming the centre piece of the temple complex.
