Entry gate of Gupteshwar Mahadev Cave in Pokhara, Nepal

From the archive record

Gupteshwar Mahadev Cave in Pokhara is the cave where the Davis fall leads to. Before you even enter into the cave itself there are things to see as the main gate opens to a market surrounding the cave area rather leading to the cave's ticket counter. Before the ticket counter is a round concrete balcony of sorts. it gives you a close look at the cave entrance and the statues leading up to it. After you buy a ticket you will enter down a large spiral staircase. It's here where you will see many modern statues and plaster works depicting everything from semi-clad ladies to bearded men and Nepali deities. There seems to be a take on some of Kathmandu Valley's erotic carvings here as many of the sculptures of a sensual nature. Source: thelongestwayhome This footage is part of the broadcast sto
