According to the guide's reminder, we and many tourists from all over the world once again poured into the Living Girl Temple, waiting to see the appearance of the Living Girl Goddess in Nepal "Kumari". Living Goddess Temple, also known as Kumari Temple, is a three-storey quadrangular temple. The exterior is red-walled wooden window. There are two coloured stone lions on the doorstep. There are a row of exquisite window lattices and eaves pillars on the doorstep. On the top floor, there is a golden window with a red curtain. On the red lintel of the doorstep, there are also exquisite spiritual stories carved. Walking into the courtyard, you can see a green plant planted in the middle of the small courtyard, surrounded by carved wooden buildings. The main entrance to the courtyard is the Temple of Living Girls, and the common corridors are on both sides. The main door of the temple was closed, and the first and second windows were not opened. There was nothing special about the three windows open side by side. There is a middle-aged Nepalese man who maintains order in the courtyard. He also speaks Mandarin very well. He even knows Yang Liwei, a space hero, in his conversation with tourists. It seems that he is the real "god". It is at his beckoning that the legendary Living Girl Goddess, Kumari, appeared very briefly in the window between the three floors to satisfy the visitors'wish to see her true face. According to the regulations, tourists are not allowed to take photos of the goddess Kumari. All tourists follow the rules very well. But we haven't figured out why there are several Nepalese women selling postcards of the living girl goddess to tourists at the door of the Kumari Temple. According to the information, Kumari means the living goddess in Nepalese, which is the incarnation of the goddess'inaccessible mother in the human world. The hard-to-get mother is one of the many incarnations of the Hindu goddess Shiva's wife, the snow mountain goddess Palvati, and also the patron god of Buddhism. The worship of the living goddess is a unique religious system in Nepal. It is said that the worship of the living goddess was very popular before the establishment of the Mala Dynasty. People think that the living goddess can judge the good or bad and predict the good or bad harvest, so they come to Kumari to offer tribute and ask God for divination. The selection of the living goddess has very strict conditions and procedures, and the term of office of the goddess is generally from four to five years old until the first female cycle. It is not long to serve as the goddess, but the hardship of the future life path is unimaginable. In the centuries of long history, I do not know how many children who have not yet understood the world are thus respected as living girl goddess.

    Nepal's living goddess Kumar, is a symbol of the goddess of wisdom and power, do your homework in advance, every afternoon at 4 pm Kumar goddess to accept people to worship, calculate the time, can be fortunate to see the living goddess, although only a few minutes, the scene is prohibited to take pictures. The famous Duba Square is not far from the Goddess Temple, about a few minutes walk, feel the strong local culture of Nepal ...

    Now I remember how you all looked up together and waited for the living goddess to appear in the window. Marry Choku, the goddess worshipped in this temple, has strict rules, which are similar to our selection of living Buddhas of Tibetan Buddhism. There are many cultures in the world, which are really similar inadvertently. This temple does not know whether it is still well or not. It is as worrying as many temples in Kathmandu.

    The temple of Kumari is also known as the Temple of the Goddess of the Living Child. It is a famous temple in Nepal, a courtyard-style three-story temple. The exterior is a red wall wooden window. There are two colorful stone lions guarded on the door steps, a row of exquisite window and columns on the door, a golden window with a hanging red cloth in the top floor, and the red door door is also carved with a very delicate story of the gods, the most special thing is that they are closed because of the famous living goddess. Note. According to the tour guide, at 4 pm every day, the goddess Kumar will appear in the small window in the middle of the third floor of the temple, but when the goddess Kumar appears, it is not allowed to take pictures. We waited for nearly an hour with a magical feeling, and we didn't see the fire goddess, and we could only leave with regret, with the mystery of the living goddess.

    The Goddess of Kumari Temple looks antique and very distinctive. Its architecture is very classical. It has a strong history and culture at a glance. Its architecture belongs to the red brick structure. It was built in the 18th century. It is really worth coming.
