You descend a number of steps to arrive at what at first seems to be a beautiful hollow in the hillside with a river running through, at the far end though is the altar where all year round, and especially at times of festivals people come to make sacrifices - mostly chickens but occasionally goats and other animals get the chop here and their blood is poured over the altar. As I said - not for the faint hearted.

Although its mainly a pure religious thing, throughout Nepal most of the population are still wary of modern medicine - and prefer to make offerings to the gods in order to cure their ailments before resorting to seeing a doctor. Its not unusual for a family to spend so much on butchering every animal they can lay their hands on that they cant then afford to pay for their healthcare. To exit the site retreat back over the bridge and head on up past the very small car park which has stall after stall of potential offerings - mainly plants / fruit and the like, but the occasional worried looking chicken can be spotted under the tables.
