Muktinath is a holy place for the Hindus & Tibetan Buddhists at 3750m

(12,300ft) at the famous Annapurna Circuit in the Himalayas of Nepal. Its an


excellent example of how 2 religions share the same sacred site with mutual
support and respect. If you are looking for a Muktinath Darshan tour in your
upcoming vacation, please keep reading this post.
The Pagoda-style Muktinath Temple is a sign of the spiritual symbol
between both Buddhists and Hindus. Hindu assumes that God Vishnu
got salvation from the curse of Brinda (wife of Jalandhar) here. Hence,
hes worshiped as Muktinath (the god of salvation). The sacred temple
which is believed to have built on its own, is one of the 8 such
temples (the others encompass Srirangam, Sri Mushnam, Tirupati,
Naimisaranyam, Thottadri, Pushkaram and Badrinath). Its also 1 of
108 Vaishnava temples. Here in the early nineteenth century the
Hindus sanctified a Vishnu shrine & named as Muktinath Lord of
Liberation. Against a backdrop of incredible starkness you can sit and
stare to the south the snow covered Annapurna range, or to the north
the Tibetan upland.
