Jamchhen Gumba - monastery near Budhanikantha, Kathmandu

Jamchhen Gumba, also reknown as Jamchhen Vijaya Stupa is one of the beautiful monasteries near Kathmandu Valley.

You can directly take a private vehicle or taxi to the gumba with the following instructions. But if you are taking a public bus then you can find sajha bus or any other public vehicle from ring road or jamal.

After reaching Budhanilkantha, enter from the gate of the temple and go straight.

You will find a Y junction where you have to take the road on your left and go ahead straight along with the road.

Walking for 8-10 minutes ahead there you find the junction of the road which has a temple on the right side. From there you have to take left turn.


There are also signs for the way to stupa on different places also. After taking left from the temple from above picture you will find a gate of aitabare within 15 minutes.

Then you will find the two ways over there. You can take any road to reach the stupa but the left one is the shortcut to the stupa. However the short way is a bit difficult to walk. The straight one is also the way for the private vehicle which leads directly to the Jamchhen Gumba.

Location: Budhanilkantha 44600, Nepal
