To be honest, I am not certain whether this picture is of part of the Guhyeshwari Temple itself or another temple nearby. The entire area in fact contains several Hindu temples, and given my limited knowledge of Hinduism and Nepal in general, I had a difficult time determining what was what, despite my trusty Lonely Planet guidebook. In any event, this is the best look at the inside of a Hindu temple that I got, because the Nepalis do not allow non-Hindus into their sacred buildings.
