Summary

[edit]
Description
English: The small three-storied Trailokya Mohan Narayan Temple, built in 1680 by Prithvi Bendra Malla, is the oldest temple in the group adjacent to the south-west corner of the palace. Although badly damaged in the 1934 earthquake it was possible to rebuild it using mainly original parts. Among them were the carved timber roof struts portraying the incarnations of Vishnu. The figure of Garuda - a faithful copy of the 8th c. Garuda in Narayanhiti - was placed in front of the temple in 1690. An inscription records it was erected by Riddhi Lakshmi, widow of King Bhupalendra, his son Bhupalendra (still a minor) and the then Prime Minister Lakshmi Narayan Joshi [planetware.com]
