One of the most important Hindu temples in Nepal, at the center of Nepalgunj, dedicated to goddess Bageshwori (Durga).
It is a Shakti Peetha where the tongue of Sati Devi is believed to have fallen as Shiva carried her corpse; the complex includes the Bageshwori pond and smaller shrines to Buddha, Ganesha, Santoshi and Hanuman. It is the oldest temple in Banke District, draws devotees from Nepal and the Indian border cities (huge crowds at Dashain), and its image appears on Nepalese one-rupee coins and postal stamps.
