Kalika Mandir Jeewanpur

Perched atop the hillside near the Jiwanpur Dhunibeshi bus park, Kalika Mandir Jiwanpur is a serene sanctuary that opens its doors to devotees in the morning. The temple grounds are adorned with a cemented floor, a Shiva Linga, and a brass lion sculpture. Annually, on the 1st of Magh, the temple becomes the focal point for a vibrant local festival.

Access to the Kalika temple is possible via both four-wheelers and two-wheelers, with two roads leading to it—one from the east and another from the west. Visitors are treated to a breathtaking panoramic view of the mountains from the hillside, complemented by the refreshing chill of the breeze. However, the road to the temple is somewhat rugged, making it unsuitable for low-clearance and longer vehicles.

Near the temple, a drinking water tank has been constructed, currently serving the local community. Plans are underway to extend the water supply to all residents. The water is sourced through a borehole and undergoes filtration before distribution.

Sanitation facilities are currently limited to temporary solutions, with plans to improve them in the future. While Jeewanpur is well-connected with 3G and 4G mobile networks, cable internet is not available, necessitating reliance on mobile data for internet access. Both NT and Ncell have coverage throughout the area.

The locals, primarily engaged in agriculture, also pursue various side businesses for additional income. They employ modern agricultural equipment such as tractors and choppers. Jiwanpur is a mere 25 km from Sitapaila, Kathmandu, but the gravel road from Bhimdhunga presents a challenge, as does the 7 km stretch from Dharke to Jeewanpur, which is particularly rough for four-wheelers. Thank you.

Gorakhnath Temple at Jiwanpur

Gorakhnath temple is located just 5km downward to Rupakheti gaun from Jiwanpur and 2 km from Dharke Dhading highway. Local hindus built the temple in hillside area. The road to the temple is gravel till this post. Temple location is huge area and there used to have yoga conference etc. I found hall for about 2 hundred people for such meetings just beside the temple. 

Entrance you need shoe off on the gate. And you not allowed to worship with any kind of dust and food inside the temple. All the temple and other sculpture are painted with bright colors like golden, orange colors. You can get picture video free in here. No sacrifise and animals allowed because cleaning is very strict. 

So if you ever getting to Dharke Dhading, jave visit the place. You will mesperize by the built of the temple. A calm and chill environment and clean and neta temple you will ever visit.

Jiwanpur a kingdom of Lychee

Jeewanpur a high ground area of Dhading Nepal. Lack of water, water resources and proper development. But often rough road leads to good destination. Jeewanpur also one the destination to hang around for hike, good air and experience organic local production.

Jeewanpur is kingdom of Lychee. You will get the fruit every corner of Jeewanpur. You can have Lychi blossoms from Jestha month and have fruit from Ashad. But you need to go through mud and very rough road to have fresh mouthful lychee.

Plum a sweet and sour waterful of small fruit. You can have plum fruit in every hous of Jeewanpur. It blossoms in Jestha month. So if you lover of plum and like stomach full of plum get to Jeewanpur in Jestha month. 

Except this you can have more organic fruit and vegtables in Jeewanpur Dhading. Most of household do agriculture so local are more experience in such organic production. The only difficulties is to get there. Because of the hilly region and unmanaged roads. Development taking place but very slowly also becasue of poor budget distribution. Thank you.
