What happens when an intangible festival like Mohani/Dashain is read through the courtyards, temples, and sacred monuments of Patan?

Join us for a special heritage walk with Aashish Mishra as we explore the tangible heritage that shapes one of the Valley’s most powerful ritual traditions. On this walk, we remember and learn about the goddess traditions of Patan- Manmaneshwori and Taleju.

Questions for the walk? Curious? Come join! 

- Why does Patan have its own distinctive relationship with Taleju deity?
- Who is Manmaneshwori, and why does her worship remain particularly significant in Patan?
- How do rituals of Ghatasthapana, Ashtami, Mahanavami and Dashami connect households, temples, deities and communities?
- And what can the monuments of Patan tell us about the intangible world of Mohani?
