 Ugratara Bhagawati Temple Nepal

No authentic inscription on the origin of the temple has been found so far. However, the legend of the origin of the Ugratara Bhagwati temple is interesting. Although there is no authentic inscription on the origin of the temple.

For many years, the Sankis lived in the village of Latauli, near the place where the temple is. This is evident from the current topography. The Sanki tribes of Latauli used to work in agriculture around the present temple. One day, while a farmer of the same Sanki (साँकी) caste was plowing the plow, a pile of the plow was plowed into the stone and a continuous stream of blood was flowing from the stone. After seeing that the farmer applied food brought by him to the blood flowing area and the bleeding stopped. Then the Ugratara Bhagawati temple was built by securing that stone.


The temple was later renovated by Naga Malla, the King of Doti, and King Birendra also assisted in the further renovation.
