Swayambhunath is the most famous image of all Nepal; the tall white stupa gilded with gold, its eyes surveying every corner of the valley. Bathed in the dewy morning light, the shrine radiates a mysterious quality, a place of enchantment beyond the real world. Swayambhunath is a mysterious place, a vision veiled in a mystical tantric cloak. But why is it there, and what is its significance? For answer we must turn to legend. This book is a practical guide with sections on history legends, festivals, religion, Monasteries, Buddhism and Tanta, as well as a suggested route around the monument.
