Mahamanjushree Temple at Bhaktapur

In the eastern mid -mountain side enroute to Kamalvinayek, Jitpur Mahamanjushree Nagarkot ,there is a temple of Shree Mahamanjushree since many years.Still , now there is no other temple except Shree Mahamanjushree temple,Chaitya, Bighnantak symbolic temple and Mahakal symbolic temple. According to the chronology of Nepal,  Mahamanjushree came to Kathmandu Valley to enshrine self enlightened Swayambhu in Tretayuga after Biswabhu Tathagat's visit. He resided in Thakalmath danda for some days which is called Lhasapako Mahamandapgiri according to history of Nepal. After that he thought to outlet the water of Nagdaha(serpents living lake) which is also known as Kathmandu Valley by cutting the gorges of Guheswari,Chobhar and Katuwal by his Chandrahas Sword. He established a city named Manjupattan and throned a king named Dharmakar.Thus, this area Thakalmath danda, Mahamandapgiri, Lhasapako is of the pre-historic importance. Therefore, it must be conserved ,developed and propogated by the state and the people themselves.To witness the reality, some historical documents are presented below.
