Manakamana Temple is one of Nepal’s most famous Hindu pilgrimage sites, dedicated to Goddess Bhagwati, who is believed to fulfill the wishes of devotees. The temple’s history dates back to the 17th century during the reign of King Ram Shah of Gorkha. According to legend, the queen possessed divine powers as an incarnation of Goddess Bhagwati. After the king’s death, the goddess appeared at the site where the temple now stands, and a shrine was later established by a local saint following divine guidance. Since then, Manakamana Temple has become one of Nepal’s most revered religious destinations, attracting thousands of pilgrims and visitors seeking blessings, peace, and spiritual fulfillment.
The Manakamana Cable Car is Nepal’s first commercial cable car service, operating since 1998 and offering a fast, safe, and scenic journey to the sacred Manakamana Temple. Connecting Kurintar to the hilltop temple in just around 10 minutes across a distance of nearly 2.8 km, the cable car replaced the long uphill trek once required by pilgrims and visitors. The ride offers breathtaking panoramic views of lush green hills, rivers, forests, and surrounding landscapes, making the journey itself a memorable experience. Equipped with modern technology and comfortable cabins, the Manakamana Cable Car has become one of Nepal’s most popular attractions for both religious travelers and tourists seeking natural beauty and adventure. From the resort, guests can conveniently reach the sacred Manakamana Temple within about a 5-minute walking distance, making it an ideal stay for pilgrims and travelers alike. Guests can also visit the peaceful Bakreswori Mahadev Temple, located approximately 35 to 45 minutes walking distance from the resort, offering a spiritual and scenic hiking experience through the serene hills of Manakamana.
