Sacred Sites in Karnali

Karnali’s spiritual landscape reflects a unique intersection of Khas Hindu traditions and Tibetan Buddhism. This collection spans the remote highlands of Upper Dolpo, home to ancient Bon and Buddhist monasteries like Sam Gling and Tsakhang, to the valleys of Surkhet and Jumla, featuring stone-carved Shiva temples and shrines dedicated to the Goddess Bhagwati. These sites serve as central hubs for regional pilgrimages, such as the Chhayanath Yatra, and preserve the medieval architectural styles of the historical Khas Empire.
