Dear ____, I have been learning about religious places of nepal​ and have found one that sticks out the most to me. Pashupatinath Temple, Legend says that Lord Shiva and Parvati once took the form of an antelope and sported unknown in the forest on the Bagmati river's east bank. The gods later caught up with him and grabbing him by one of his horns, forced him to resume his divine form. The broken horn was worshipped as a Sivalinga but over time it was buried and lost. Centuries later astonished herdsmen found one of his cows showering the earth with milk. Digging deep at the site, he discovered the divine linga of Pashupatinath. Did you know that Pashupatinath Temple is the oldest Hindu temple in Kathmandu? They have cool Festivals too! The most important festivals are the Maha Shiva Ratri Bala Chaturthi festival, and Teej festival. Teej is one of the most celebrated festival at Pashupatinath Temple. It is celebrated by Hindu Nepali women for long life, happiness of their husband. It is believed that taking fasting at that day will make strong bond between the husband and wife. On this day, Pashupatinath Temple will be with biggest crowd. Anyway I really enjoyed writing you this letter I hope you you think The Pashupatinath Temple is as cool as I do!

sincerely, _____
