Towering high above Kathmandu on a green hill, Swayambhunath temple is a great place to visit, not just for the stupas and pilgrims, but also the many monkeys.
The legend of the origins of Swayambhunath temple is beautiful. It says that once upon a time, there was a huge lake in Kathmandu Valley (of which, by the way, scientists have found proof). Out of this lake grew a lotus. The name of the valley was Swayambhu, meaning "self created". A disciple of Shakyamuni, bodhisattva Manjusri, had a vision of the lotus and the lake and traveled here to worship it. Since the lake was not easily accessible by human pilgrims, he wanted to drain the lake: he cut a gorge through the surrounding mountains. After that, the lake dried up and created Kathmandu valley; the lotus turned into a hill, and the flower became Swayambhunath temple.
