Visiting Swayambhunath “Monkey Temple” Stupa in Kathmandu, Nepal – OHS 151
Basically I heard this was the Monkey Temple for good reason. There are a lot of Monkeys at this stupa/temple. I visited Swayamdhunath Stupa the day after I first visited Boudhanath Stupa and booked my next three nights at the Bodhi Guest House. Once I arrived at this temple I knew this was something special about this temple. So much so I thought I should get a hotel on near this location because I know I would be spending a great deal of time in at this holy Buddhist stupa. In the end I realized my best place to stay is near Boudhanath Stupa and at the Bodhi Guest House Hotel. The Monkey Temple is so much different than Boudhanath Stupa. It is more than the monkeys. It is the energy, the people and the general size of the complex. I was completely stunned by it all. The more I go the deeper I go into the coolness of Swayambhuanth Stupa. There is something very special for me at this temple. I knew it the first time I arrived. Each time I go this realization is only deepened. Despite staying near the Boudhanath Stupa I have actually spent more time at the Monkey temple.

Show Notes:
Known as the Monkey Temple, it is the oldest and most sacred Buddhist temples in Nepal.
I spent most of my time at this temple.
It is much larger than most people know and is worth exploring.
The monkeys can be very aggressive. But when they not, they are very cute and human like.
