On top of the hill - in the centre of Chobhar Village - is located a small but very pittoresque temple dedicated to Aditnath, whose origins date back to the 15th century. What is so interesting about visiting this site are, first of all, the
presence of so many pots and pans which decorate the walls
of the temple. Surely this must be unique in Nepal! One of the explanations is that these items were placed there by newly-weds, for good luck sake, as they embark on their new life together! A more plausible explanation is that In Newari culture, the offering of pots and pans is made to please the Gods.
