    The Krishna Mandir Temple was completed in 1637. Legend says that it was inspired by a dream. One night, King Siddhi Narasingh Malla dreamt that the gods Krishna and Radha were standing in front of the palace. The King ordered a temple built on the same location. During a war with a neighbouring kingdom a decade later, the King emerged victorious after calling on Krishna to vanquish his enemies. In gratitude, the King built a replica of the temple inside the Sundari Chowk courtyard.
    The temple was hard-hit by the 2015 earthquake, sustaining structural damage. It was restored and reopened to pilgrims and tourists.
