It is located in a beautiful area with stunning views, about 21 kilometers (13 miles) from Thamel. It takes about 45 minutes by car to reach. The temple&#8217;s architecture is amazing and nicely decorated. One side of the temple overlooks a river, while the other side faces a mountain. Visitors can also explore a nearby cave and Shisha Mahal. Despite some issues like the poor condition of the road leading to the temple and the collapsed bridge needed to reach the temple, many people still visit the temple because overall, it&#8217;s a great place to explore.<\/p>\n<p>They have plenty of outside parking spaces, but it takes about 15 minutes to walk the steep uphill path to get to the main temple. Unfortunately, they don&#8217;t have any picnic spots or dedicated relaxing spaces for visitors, as most South Indian temples do.<\/p>\n<p><iframe loading=\"lazy\" title=\"Shree Pancha Mahalaxmi Temple - Viral Temple in Sankhu - Hindu temple in Changunarayan, Nepal\" width=\"500\" height=\"281\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/JaZ1AUcS2Ls?feature=oembed\" frameborder=\"0\" allow=\"accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture; web-share\" referrerpolicy=\"strict-origin-when-cross-origin\" allowfullscreen><\/iframe><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Shree Pancha Mahalaxmi Temple &#8211; Hindu temple in Sanku, Changunarayan, Nepal The temple, also known as the Viral Temple on social media, is dedicated to the goddess Laxmi, the goddess of wealth and prosperity.
