The Nepali temple is also called the 'Kathwala temple'. The magnificent woodwork here has no comparison with any other temple in India. The workers who carved this temple out were from Nepal. Even the wood used in the temple is from Nepal. One nice thing about this wood is that termites do not eat it.
