Kathmandu Valley is blessed with four revered Ganesh shrines, traditionally worshipped as guardians of the four directions:
Jal Binayak – Chobhar
Surya Binayak – Bhaktapur
Ashok Binayak – Kathmandu Durbar Square
Chandra Binayak – Chabahil
Together, these ancient shrines form an important sacred circuit of Ganesh worship in the Kathmandu Valley. Devotees seek Ganesha’s blessings for the removal of obstacles, prosperity and protection.
