PASHUPATI NATH TEMPLE

Pashupatinath Temple is the oldest Hindu temple in Kathmandu. It is not known for certain when Pashupatinath Temple was founded. But according to Nepal Mahatmaya and Himvatkhanda, one day lord shiva grew tired of his palace atop Mt. Kailash and so went in search of a place where he could escape to. He discovered Kathmandu Valley and, without telling anyone, he ran away from his palace and came to live in the Valley. He gained great fame there as Pashupati, Lord of the Animals, before the other gods discovered his hiding place and came to fetch him. He disguised himself as a majestic deer and would not help the other gods when they asked for his help. When Shiva did not yield to their pleas, they planned to use force. God vishnu grabbed him by his horns and they shattered into pieces. Vishnu established a temple and used the broken horns to form a linga on the bank of the Bagmati River. As time went by, the temple was buried and forgotten. Then a cow was known to have secretly sprinkled her milk over the mound. Apparently, when the cow herders dug around the spot, they found the lost lingas and again built a temple in reverence.

BHEDETAR

It is about 1,420m above the sea level, mostly foggy weather during winter but great place to be during non winter months with cool relaxing temperature and great view of the Himalayas and the Southern plains . It is also a gateway to Limbu villages of Rajarani (King Queen), Okhrae and Chaubise. There are also few numbers of small restaurants, shops and decent hotels. Bhadetar in itself there is nothing much, it is popular more with the people, the word of mouth than the place has to offer. In the early 80’s Prince Charles did also paid a visit to view the progress and construction of Koshi Highway, giving the little bumpy hill an Englishman’s first name “Charles Point.”
Due to good road and transport services, this hill top town of Bhadetar has really grown up to become the holiday destination of many local and visitors.

There is one high school namely Jiri Higher Secondary School at Hatdanda.

Jiri is said to have established in 1938 by the Swiss. The name "Jiri" actually came from the city Zurich in Switzerland. It is wrong. The Name "Jiri" is derived from its local ethnic group called the "Jirel".

As the closest roadhead, Jiri is now the trailhead for many treks into mount everest region. The trek to lukla will take seven or eight days. Few people actually begin a trek from Jiri anymore, as only 5% of all trekkers who attempt the difficult trek to Everest Base Camp start at Jiri. The other 95% choose to fly into the small airstrip at Lukla, thus cutting off a week of difficult but beautiful trekking.

Although the trailhead from Jiri into sagarmatha national park is referred to as the "classic route to Everest", the original trailhead actually began at Kathmandu. Tenzing Norgey and Edmund hillary on the summit—passed through Jiri. So Jiri is also called the "Gateway to Mt. Everest".
