Pashupatinath east side 


From across the river, on the east bank of the river, you can get a good view of the Pashupatinath temple and of the happenings on the other side of the river. There are many Siva lingas on the small hill on the bank of the river. At the north end of the terrace there is a Siva-linga with a 6th century carving of Siva on it. You can see the golden trident on the temple roof. The trident is the symbol of Siva, and it indicates that it is a Siva temple.
